34."LE MER"-CLAUDE DEBUSSY
OFR SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA
COND.-MILAN HOVAT
THE SOUNDS THAT MR. DEBUSSY WROTE INTO MUSIC SEEM TO
BE THE VERY SOUNDS OF LIFE ITSELF AND IT'S PLACE OF ORIGIN
"THE SEA".
HEARING DEBUSSY'S "LE MER" REMINDS ONESELF OF THE FEELING
WE ALL GET WHEN WE VISIT THE SEASHORE AFTER A LONG ABSENSE.
THAT WE HAVE COME BACK TO A PLACE OF DIVINITY WHERE INDEED
OUR OWN SOULS ONCE EMERGED-PERHAPS-IN SOME OTHER TIME-
IN SOME OTHER PLACE-THE DETAILS MAY BE AS FUZZY AS THE MIST
OF THE SEA ITSELF-BUT THE FELLING OF HOMENESS IS AS CERTAIN AS
THE SUN ITSELF.
