Claude Debussy: Sonata for Flute, Viola and Harp (Magali Mosnier, Antoine Tamestit, Xavier de Maistre)

Instrumentation: flute, viola and harp. Debussy first planned this sonata for flute, oboe and harp before choosing the darker, warmer viola. Magali Mosnier, Antoine Tamestit and Xavier de Maistre weave delicate textures in which the airy flute, husky viola and shimmering harp evoke an ancient, mythic pastoral. Choose it as the gentlest, most atmospheric entry here.
