Lesure 100.<br/><br/>Estampes premiered in Paris with Ricardo Viñes at the piano at a concert of the Société nationale in the Salle Erard on 9 January 1904<br/><br/>Debussy's creative connection to the visual arts was significant and many times throughout his career he attributed the inspiration for many of his compositions to specific artists or works of art. "Louis Laloy his first French biographer revealed in 1909 that 'He received his most profitable lessons from poets and painters not from musicians' while he himself told Varèse in 1911 'I love pictures almost as much as music'. .One of his rare piano pupils Mademoiselle Worms de Romilly went so far as to write that he 'always regretted not having worked at painting instead of music'. Ever since his years at the Conservatoire Debussy had felt that he had more to learn from artists than from career-obsessed musicians: 'You are getting nowhere M. Croche will tell them because you know nothing but music and obey barbaric laws'. Three of his works were dedicated to artists: one of the Images for piano to Alexandre Charpentier one of the Proses lyriques to Henri Lerolle and Estampes to Jacques-Emile Blanche."

First Edition later issue Lesure 92.<br/><br/>The present work premiered in Paris on 9 April 1909 at a Concert Colonne under the composer's direction.<br/><br/>"One of the most important musicians of his time Debussy's harmonic innovations had a profound influence on generations of composers. He made a decisive move away from Wagnerism in his only complete opera Pelléas et Mélisande and in his works for piano and for orchestra he created new genres and revealed a range of timbre and colour which indicated a highly original musical aesthetic."

This letter by an anonymous author first appeared in Niles' National Register in December 1841. It recounts an overland journey from Missouri to California through Santa Fe New Mexico Las Vegas Nevada and on to California. It reports interactions with the Bartleson and Workman parties and gives the impressions of an American trans-Continental traveler of the Society of Santa Fe New Mexico in the early 1840s. Note following the text of the letter by Dale L. Morgan an American historian biographer editor and critic. Morgan specialized in material on Utah history the American fur trade and overland trails. Morgan was known for the advice he provided to emerging scholars often those out of the academic mainstream who were involved in the history and biography of the American West from the 1930s to the 1960s. Among the scholars Morgan mentored were Juanita Brooks Fawn Brodie Bernard DeVoto and others. In his Note Morgan leans toward ascription of the authorship of this letter to John McClure of Indiana.
