Famous Composer Writes Inter.

Technique of Pelleas.

Debussy's own view OF his MASTER
work. "Pelleas ct NeIisande," Is told
in a Translated letter to a lifelong
friend in Enziepd. a letter which The
Daily Telegraph of London believes
has not hitherto been published The
composer wrote that on reflection. he
found IL rather difficult TO speak OF
-Pelleas" and to underline its char
acteristic portions, so he begged his
correspondent TO excuse what follows:
Before all. you will DO well to
eliminate from discussion the question
whether there Is. or Is not melody in
Pelleas. II must be decisively UNDER

Importance, 1t Is to react against the
pernicious neo-wagnerian aesthetic
which presumes TO render. at the same
time. the sentiment expressed BY the
which impel it's actions. In my
opinion, these are two contradictory
operations, from lyrical point of
view, and when united, can only
weaken each other.
Perhaps IL IL better that music
should by simple means chord. a

are produced. without making labori-
Gus efforts to follow symphonic

That Is why there is no guiding
thread in 'Pelleas.' and its charac-
ters are not subjected to the slavery
OF Leitmot1ye.' Take note that the
motive which accompanies 'Melisande'
is never altered. 1t returns in the
fifth act unchanged at any point, be
