Debussy's sublime music is often associated with the Golden Ratio. His Impressionist music broke much ground, and it has a modernity that continues to be a source of inspiration for composers today. Debussy sought to free music up from the constraints of textbook harmony, inviting nature and mythology as inspiration for the music. However, what is it that makes music such as 'Clair de Lune' so popular among modern audiences? The answer lies in the beautiful, mirror-symmetrical proportions in Debussy's music that is connected to the Golden Ratio and the Vesica Pisces.

Musicologist R.K. Owens studies the unifying mathematics within the music of Debussy. R.K. Owens maps out the geometry behind the music, using the mathematics of natural organic growth, the Golden Ratio and Vesica Pisces, to demonstrate how the proportions of Debussy's music corresponds with the pleasing symmetrical proportions present in the mathematics of nature. R.K. Owens explores the connection between music and Sacred Geometry, through Debussy's timeless masterpieces.

By the end of this book, you will learn how Debussy's music connects with the pleasing symmetrical proportions of nature. The Sacred Geometry is inherent in our own selves and connects us back to our true nature. The Golden Ratio and Vesica Pisces is studied in three of Debussy's most well-known and loved impressionist creations, 'Reflets dans l'eau' from Images Book I, 'Clair de Lune' from the Suite Bergamasque, and the beautiful orchestral masterpiece 'Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun.'
