Debussy had intended to write a cycle comprising six sonatas. However, as he was seriously ill, he was forced to conclude it with the third one. Whereas the Sonata for Cello and Piano and the one for Flute, Viola and Harp were quickly written in 1915, an unusually fruitful compositional year, the violin sonata posed difficulties for the composer in the following year. He struggled with the finale in particular, and was only able to send the work to the publisher Durand in April 1917. Its difficult genesis is soon forgotten when one listens to the resulting work: it displays perfect classicism and is full of life, as the composer himself remarked.

Beautiful Edition
Henle has done a splendid job with the Debussy Sonate. The violin part is easy to read and logically laid out. In fact there are three violin parts: in the piano part is the violin part as it appeared in the manuscript, the main violin part has fingerings and bowings added and an appendix that shows the enitire first edition violin part.
