Claude Debussy<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

“Claire de Lune”<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Starry<\/p>\n

One of the big names in classical music, Claude Debussy<\/a>, has greatly influenced the movement of music and art even past his years. His work is a great way to have a study session and or even to play on a rainy evening to unwind.
\nThere is something so calming about his music. I love to play it when I\u2019m studying and when I\u2019m falling asleep, especially the song “Claire de Lune”<\/a>. It has been in my playlist since I can remember and has always made me feel like I am part of some Disney movie. <\/p>\n

\"Claude<\/p>\n

Debussy has been a source of inspiration for many artists. Art is the inspiration of other art, we gather things we like and make them our own. Because of this, we see that Debussy is a very important aspect of the art community. Painters use his music to inspire a story in their artwork, theaters use his music to add emotion to a play, pianists use his music as inspiration for their own pieces. Because art is a cycle of borrow, transform, repeat, we can understand how influential a big musician was to an artist even in the 21st century.<\/p>\n

\"Debussy<\/p>\n

Sometimes when studying, you don’t want to sit in total silence but you also don’t want to listen to Drake<\/a>\u2019s new album, Certified Lover Boy<\/a><\/em>. Debussy\u2019s music is a great balance of both, it gives you some background noise but will not distract you with lyrics. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
