| Debussy's music may be soothing, but his personal life was far from tranquil. He had many high-profile relationships, called off an engagement, and divorced Rosalie Texier in favor of Emma Bardac (pictured). After stirring controversy in France, the couple was compelled to leave to England in 1905.[([[https://interlude.hk/debussys-wives/|Interlude]])] | Debussy's music may be soothing, but his personal life was far from tranquil.

| | ===== Children's Corner ===== |
| | |
| | Despite its title, Children's Corner is not a children's piece. It was composed for the composer's three-year-old daughter, Claude-Emma, in 1911, and was meant to recall childhood toys and recollections.[([[https://books.google.pl/books?id=TgZADwAAQBAJ&pg=PT28&lpg=PT28&dq=Despite+the+title,+Children%E2%80%99s+Corner+isn%E2%80%99t+actually+a+piece+for+children.+It+was+written+in+1911+for+the+composer%E2%80%99s+three-year-old+daughter,+Claude-Emma,+and+was+intended+to+evoke+childhood+toys+and+memories.&source=bl&ots=cKOUSTOqPk&sig=ACfU3U381bz_dpqr5FgWUrGj5U779caFUA&hl=pl&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwichfbuvtH1AhXsk4sKHaBZDHQQ6AF6BAgfEAM#v=onepage&q=Despite%20the%20title%2C%20Children%E2%80%99s%20Corner%20isn%E2%80%99t%20actually%20a%20piece%20for%20children.%20It%20was%20written%20in%201911%20for%20the%20composer%E2%80%99s%20three-year-old%20daughter%2C%20Claude-Emma%2C%20and%20was%20intended%20to%20evoke%20childhood%20toys%20and%20memories.&f=false|Google Books]])] |
