Debussy was a modern musician, who was able to form a spiritual impression that was incorporated from nature but involved musical form. He was considered to be an impressionist painter, using similar methods in his work by using natural phenomena. Despite the similarities, however, he also incorporated a certain anxiety and jangled nerves, although he never incorporated material notes, but used an abstract impression. Debussy was influenced by the Russian music, especially Moussorgsky.
