Debussys oneact ballet, or Poeme danse, was given its first performance by Serge Diaghilevs Ballets Russes on May 15, 1913 with scenery by Leon Bakst Vaslav Nijinsky was the featured dancer and Pierre Monteux conducted. Despite the exquisitelycrafted score, the ballets premiere was overshadowed by the riotous premiere by the same company of Stravinskys Le sacre du printemps just two weeks later. Fortunately, Debussys music has continued life as a concert work over the past century. The score reproduced here was first issued in Paris by Durand et Cie. at the end of 1913. As with all PLP scores a percentage of each sale is donated to the amazing online archive of free music scores and recordings, IMSLP Petrucci Music Library. Wikipedia article IMSLP page
