From his childhood on Claude Debussy was fascinated by poetry, just as much an inspiration and influence as music itself. His mother taught him to read the poetry of the fashionable French poets, and soon he was immersed in the world of Mallarmé, Baudelaire and Verlaine. Among his first compositions were various songs, and he

continued to write songs till the end of his creative life. This new recording presents a selection of the most beautiful, special and mesmerizing songs by Debussy, from the Nuit d'étoiles (1880) till the Noël des enfants qui n'ont plus de maisons (1915). Lorna Windsor studied with Elizabeth Schwarzkopf, Gérard Souzay and Hans Hotter. She specializes in early music and 20th century music, with an emphasis on the French repertoire. She recorded Satie songs and vocal works by Casella. Italian pianist Antonio Ballista plays a superb 1923 Pleyel piano.
