  • Description

    his Prix de Rome entries. The prelude, fanfares and four symphonic fragments from Le Martyre de Saint Sebastien were taken for concert performance from Debussy's incidental music for Gabriele D'Annunzio's scandalous mystery play. While rarely heard today, the ' danced legend' Khamma, set in ancient Egypt, and incidental music for Shakespeare's King Lear, provide suitably atmospheric music, as do the Cortege et air de danse from The Prodigal Son, the cantata which gained Debussy the Prix de Rome in 1884.
