Claude Debussy's view of the orchestra was different from anyone else's before him. For Debussy, the orchestra posed
a panorama of possibilities: the creation of atmospheres irrespective of a thematic narrative, the conjuring of the exotic,
the summoning of suggestive mists of musical impressionism with orchestral washes and instrumental fogs. Where Beethoven had
explained and commanded, Debussy suggested and implied. Andt like his illustrious predecessor, he discovered a whole new orchestral
language in the process.
