The piece, which was given its first performance under the title La flûte de Pan, was composed in 1913 as incidental music to a dramatic poem by Gabriel Mourey. In the central scene Pan is playing a reed flute, which is actually the nymph Syrinx. Pan is, however, invisible to the other nymphs and to the audience. In order to reflect the staged situation, the dedicatee Louis Fleury used to play the piece behind a screen when he played it in concert. It was only published by Jobert in 1927, following Debussy’s death; its popularity has remained unsurpassed to this day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis edition is part of Henle Urtext Editions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eAbout Lennox Berkeley\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSir Lennox Berkeley (1903–1989) was an English composer whose music is distinguished by its elegance, clarity and strong melodic character. His musical outlook was particularly influenced by French music and culture; after meeting Maurice Ravel, Berkeley was encouraged to study with the celebrated teacher Nadia Boulanger in Paris.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBerkeley composed across a wide range of genres, including orchestral, chamber, instrumental, choral and operatic music. His style often combines a refined approach to harmony and texture with clear tonal foundations, reflecting influences from composers including Mozart, Ravel, Poulenc and Stravinsky.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlongside his work as a composer, Berkeley became an important teacher and influential figure in twentieth-century British music, leaving a varied catalogue that continues to be performed and recorded today.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"All Flutes Plus","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":60373307294030,"sku":"HN496","price":6.3,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0885\/5335\/7646\/files\/hn496_0.jpg?v=1786621797","url":"https:\/\/www.allflutesplus.com\/products\/debussy-syrinx-for-solo-flute-henle","provider":"All Flutes Plus","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
