Stunningly beautiful.

The Girl with the Flaxen Hair (La fille aux cheveux de lin) from Debussy's Preludes, Book 1.

Top-level pianists and instructors understand how this piece is the prerequisite to the larger scale works of Impressionism.

This piece is stunningly beautiful, and surprisingly responsive to your efforts to learn, if you understand how Debussy is challenging you.

Debussy was revolutionary.  This piece is intimidating because of the key signature (Gb Major) and enharmonics (Cb and Fb are not fun for normal people).  It turns out that keeping track of which white keys is really the biggest obstacle to mastering this piece.  

So... color coding the occurrences of the white keys is a great way to overcome fear of missing Cb's and Fb's.  You'll be amazed at how well it works, but mostly you'll be pleased to be able to play the entire piece without fear of an embarrassing missed Cb or Fb!
