Bien des traits de la vie de Debussy et de son œuvre restent encore méconnus. En offrant un regard diversifié sur l’homme et son environnement culturel et social, ainsi que sur ses compositions, ce livre a pour objet de mettre en lumière certains aspects de sa personnalité artistique. Le titre sous lequel sont réunis ces textes fait à la fois écho à un ouvrage de Paul Bourget, Études et Portraits, écrivain que Debussy admirait dans sa jeunesse, et au portrait esquissé par son ami, le peintre Paul Robert, et reproduit sur la couverture. La première partie, divisée en deux sections et intitulée « Portraits », propose une approche transversale allant du monde littéraire que Debussy côtoyait, à sa relation aux œuvres du passé, en passant par son rapport à l’argent. La deuxième partie « Études » examine, à travers l’analyse de sources manuscrites et imprimées, les multiples remaniements que Debussy a apportés à ses œuvres musicales ou critiques et se concentre sur les mélodies de jeunesse, les Proses lyriques, les Nocturnes, L’Enfant prodigue et sur Monsieur Croche Antidilettante. Les relations que Debussy a nouées avec les auteurs, les compositeurs ou encore les interprètes font l’objet des ultimes chapitres

The first English translation of the correspondence between two composers and friends. Désiré-Emile Inghelbrecht was a conductor and composer. His friendship with Claude Debussy began in 1911 (although they had met previously), and he soon became one of the Master's closest friends. This book is the first publication, in the original French and in English translation, of the correspondence between these two musicians. Beginning rather formally in 1912, with the salutation "Mon cher Inghelbrecht," the correspondence soon became much moreintimate, with Debussy addressing Inghelbrecht as "Mon cher ami" or "Cher Inghel." Although Debussy had a reputation for being cold and distant and for avoiding strangers, this was just his way of maintaining his privacy. This aloofness enabled him to express in private the warmth he felt toward those few close friends whose intimacy he needed and cherished. Inghelbrecht was in the forefront of this group. Their friendship was based not only on a mutual respect for each other's talents as artists and musicians, but also on the sharing of intimate secrets and warm feelings. Inghelbrecht's wife would later write that her husband retained the mark Debussy left on him. "For him, he was a beacon, a guide. And he had the deep joy of being able, up until his last days, to bring to life with passion, with all his talent-the works of a man who had been for a few years his friend." Margaret G. Cobb, the"doyenne of Debussy scholars," brings to life these two talented men. She enriches Richard Miller's idiomatic translation of the letters with copious notes and wonderful illustrations to illuminate a great musical friendship. Margaret G. Cobb is also the author of The Poetic Debussy, available from the University of Rochester Press. In 2002 she was awarded the title of Officier de l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres by the French Government'sMinistère de la Culture et de la Communication.
