"La Mer" was composed between 1903-1905. Debussy, however, refined the work up until at least 1913. These corrections are found in a score which Debussy gave to his wife as a present for her private library in 1913. This source has only recently come to light and has been evaluated for the very first time for this edition.
The editor has also drawn on several other important sources which were previously unavailable or unknown to musicologists, resulting in an array of new readings and corrections. In addition, there are many changes, a.o. in terms of articulation and dynamics.
This new edition includes the famous "fanfare" in Movement III, clearly marked in small print and brackets. This fanfare was excised in the 1910 reissue of the work, but was reinstated by a number of great conductors who knew Debussy, i.e. Monteux, Muench, Mitropoulos and Ansermet. They felt that the excision was a misunderstanding and that the fanfare was necessary for the structure of the movement. And so, the Barenreiter edition presents the revival of a performing tradition which is committed to the fanfare.
This scholarly-critical edition which is based on the latest musicogical research is an absolute must for conductors, orchestras and librarians.
