Why is Clair de Lune so special?
‘Clair de lune’ takes its title from an atmospheric poem by the French poet Paul Verlaine which depicts the soul as somewhere full of music ‘in a minor key’ where birds are inspired to sing by the ‘sad and beautiful’ light of the moon.
How does Clair de Lune make you feel?
It’s light and airy, yet mysterious, with darker, more complex chords moving underneath the basic melody. It can seem sad, yet also triumphant. It can be soothing and calming, but can also be turbulent and emotional. Clair de Lune can be used in many different formats, and enjoyed in all of them.
