La plus que lente
''La plus que lente, L. 121'' ((:laplyskəˈlɑ̃t), "The more than slow"), is a waltz for solo piano written by Claude Debussy in 1910, shortly after his publication of the Préludes, Book I. The piece debuted at the New Carlton Hotel in Paris, where it was transcribed for strings and performed by a popular Romany band.〔
The title may be translated as "The even slower waltz"〔 or, word-for-word, "The more than slow".〔 Despite its translation, ''La plus que lente'' was not meant to be played slowly; "lente," in this context, refers to the ''valse lente'' genre that Debussy attempted to emulate. Typical of Debussy's caustic〔〔 approach to naming his compositions, it represented his reaction to the vast influence of the slow waltz in France's social atmospheres.〔〔 However, as Frank Howes noted, "''La plus que lente'' is, in Debussy's wryly humorous way, the ''valse lente'' (waltz ) to outdo all others."〔
==Composition history==
Debussy was supposedly inspired for ''La plus que lente'' by a small sculpture, "La Valse", that he kept on his mantelpiece.〔 However, others point to various sources of inspiration, some citing the resemblance between this waltz and Debussy's earlier work, ''Ballade.''. It is also believed that inspiration stemmed from a meeting with a reparable violinist Léoni, who was quite influential regarding the gypsy style of playing.
During the same year of its composition, an orchestration of the work was conceived, but Debussy opposed the score's heavy use of percussion and proposed a new one, writing to his publisher:
