Footsteps in the Snow from Preludes Book 1 (Debussy)
Movements
Notes
‘Des pas sur la neige’ is the sixth piece in the composer’s first book of Préludes, written between late 1909 and early 1910. The prelude was, along with Danseuses de Delphes, one of the preludes Debussy believed should be played “entre quatre-z-yeux” (literally “between four eyes”) meaning intimately, as if privately.
