Claude Debussy's Violin Sonata, written in 1917, was the last major composition he wrote. The work reflects the composer's late style, and also contains elements of Hungarian music. While short it encompasses a wide range of emotions, the outer movement are fairly sombre while the Intermede is more capricious.
