Before deciding, I noticed that Tori Amos has recorded an album in tribute to several classical composers, Claude Debussy being one of them. The album title is Night of Hunters. This is a rather nice link between two natives of 22 August. It deserves a couple of videos.
Claude Debussy's Girl with the Flaxen Hair:
The [French] title "La fille aux cheveux de lin" was inspired by Leconte de Lisle's poem by the same name, one of his Chansons écossaises (Scottish songs) from his 1852 collection Poèmes antiques (Ancient Poems). The image of a girl with flaxen-coloured hair has been utilized in fine art as a symbol of innocence and naivety. (Wikipedia)
The piece Tori Amos chose to honour Debussy was his Girl with the Flaxen Hair. She called her tribute piece Carry.(See HERE)
