1918. Debussy has died and is at the Pearly Gates waiting to be processed. Calculaties, a staff member at the Pearly Gates, has to decide whether his music was great enough for him to spend his eternity in the composer’s room, mixing with all the greats. This absurd comedy tells Debussy's history – from a less than fashionable beginning, to his attempts to implement a new style of music – Impressionism. Delivering Debussy explains impressionism in music whilst exploring this popular composer's personality, his circumstances, and his relationships and rapport with his contemporaries.
