excerpt from Debussy’s corrected proofs for the violin sonata. Looking at the fair manuscript of this passage it seems likely that Debussy had intended the material in the first bar of the second system here to be pizzicato. It’s difficult to make it work in practice and what appears in the corrections here is probably a fudge… https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ce7c6fc6053ab0001f9ba8f/1564156646868-DNVKVS796CI5WBZX30M2/resonance+ties.png Projects When is a ‘rest’ not a ‘rest’? I can understand why the engraver didn’t like these indications of resonance in the cello and piano into the third movement of the cello sonata (even though Debussy indicates a ‘subito’[!] attacca). The ‘solution’ in the first edition was to scrap them but I think they are needed to keep the sense of continuity. (Even recent critical editions omit them, without comment in critical notes.) The third movement has already been signalled some bars earlier and Debussy liked these kinds of ‘cinematic’ transitions. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ce7c6fc6053ab0001f9ba8f/1564156554327-POYFX2Q262LB18PED794/Not+fight+but+accompany.png Projects This little note, that the pianist should never forget that they are not ‘fighting’ the cello but ‘accompanying’ it, sits at the bottom of a page of the continuity draft of the Finale of the cello sonata, suggesting that it must have been workshopped at some stage – but when, where, with whom? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ce7c6fc6053ab0001f9ba8f/1564156599807-XI653BU4FQ8L1COPHJ9Z/sons+harmoniques.png Projects I’d like to find a cellist who could play this passage as proposed in harmonics!
