In 1890, around the year Debussy wrote his solo piano version of Clair de Lune, his music started to get published. However Debussy was not so happy with Eugene Fromont when he discovered he'd published Reverie from an old score lying around - now destroyed. Debussy wrote to him "I very much regret your decision to publish Rêverie. I wrote it in a hurry years ago and purely for commercial purposes. It is a work of no significance and, frankly, I consider it absolutely no good." The "for commercial purposes" might have actually appealed to Fromont's business instincts. Today we can be grateful to Fromont as this beautiful work is a firm favorite amongst pianists and a good companion piece to Clair de Lune and Arabesque 1.
