The Debussy is an interesting piece, and has very little in common with its
classical predecessors of Weber and Mozart and Stamitz. It requires extreme
control in dynamics, color shiftings, and overall sensitivity to the
impressionistic qualities. I suggest you buy several recordings of this and
other Debussy works to get the overall feel of the French style. If you can
make it work, it is an extraordinary piece.

Best of luck with it!
