{"product_id":"debussys-paris-catherine-kautsky-9781538137154","title":"Debussy's Paris: Piano Portraits of the Belle ﾉpoque","description":"Claude Debussy's exquisite piano works have captivated generations with their dreamlike atmosphere and mysterious soundscapes.Written in Paris at the height of the Belle ﾉpoque, the music creates a soundtrack for Parisians' enjoyment of such delights as clowns, mermaids, eccentric dances, and the dark tales of Edgar Allan Poe. Debussy's Paris: Piano Portraits of the Belle ﾉpoque explores how key works reflect not only the most appealing and innocent aspects of Paris but also more disquieting attitudes of the time such as racism, colonial domination, and nationalistic hostility. Debussy left no avenue unexplored, and his piano works present a sweeping overview of the passions, vices, and obsessions of the era. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePianist Catherine Kautsky reveals little-known elements of Parisian culture and weaves the music, the man, the city, and the era into an indissoluble whole. Her portrait will delight anyone who has ever been entranced by Debussy's music or the city that inspired it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Catherine Kautsky\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1538137151\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781538137154\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Rowman \u0026amp; Littlefield Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/03\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 254\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.76lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.54d","brand":"Catherine Kautsky","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43983608185087,"sku":"9781538137154","price":31.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f81da37c-9c7e-4ada-8e5a-649bf8ac264b.jpg?v=1683267661","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/debussys-paris-catherine-kautsky-9781538137154","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
