Published by G. Henle Verlag, this Urtext edition of Deux Arabesques marks the beginning of Henle’s series of Claude Debussy’s piano works, launched in 1983. These two charming and expressive pieces are considered the most significant of Debussy’s early piano compositions and remain among the publisher's most enduringly popular editions.

Composed shortly before their first publication in November 1891, the Arabesques initially gained little attention. However, by 1906, they had risen in popularity, becoming staples in the pianist's repertoire and inspiring numerous transcriptions for other instruments.

The first Arabesque is particularly beloved for its elegant, flowing ornamentation and serene, suspended quality—qualities that have made it a favorite among professionals and amateur pianists alike.
