3. Read the essay "Musical Impressionism: The Early History of the Term" by Ronald L. Byrnside from The Musical Quarterly, Vol. 66, No. 4 (October, 1980), pp. 522-537, published by Oxford University Press.
4. Now that you've carefully examined and researched the work of music, write a new thread of at least 200 words, in which you:
Describe Claude Debussy's "Clair de Lune" analytically. In doing this, identify at least TWO basic elements of music described in Chapter 6 (section 6.1) "The Basic Elements of Music".
Explain whether "Clair de Lune" is Apollonian or Dionysian, and provide evidence supporting your argument.
Knowing that "Clair de Lune" belongs to a musical school known as Impressionism (based on your research) describe the similarities and differences between Impressionism as an artistic movement (as we learned about in Module 5) and as a movement in music. Use evidence from "Clair de Lune" and your exploration of Impressionism to support your arguments.
Be sure to use and cite "Musical Impressionism: The Early History of the Term" by Ronald L. Byrnside and/or another essay you have already found and read as a research source article concerning the musical school and movement known as Impressionism.
