Musicology Lecture: "Debussy and the Circle of Independent Art" - Denis Herlin (Director of Research, IRPMF/CNRS)

Between 1890 and 1895, as owner of the “Library of Independent Art," Edmond Bailly published the works of an entire generation of symbolist writers as well as Debussy\&##39;s La Damoiselle élue and the French version of Oscar Wilde’s Salomé. His bookshop became a meeting place for poets, artists, and composers, including Debussy, a regular visitor. This paper explores this convergence of the arts, which could not help but spark Debussy\&##39;s imagination at a time when he began to work on Pelléas et Mélisande. Part of the Department of Musicology Distinguished Lecture Series
