Debussy The Love Rat with Abi Clarke

Notable

Available for over a year

Claude Debussy was a love rat whose alluring charm left behind a long trail of broken hearts and two near deadly gunshot wounds. Debussy's life was filled with crimes of passion, he shipped his wife off to Jersey so he could have an affair, and he wrote an anonymous gossip column to criticize his peers. But was he really a monster? In this episode, comedian Abi Clarke tunes into Debussy's Love Island antics to figure out if he was a hopeless romantic or a reckless rake. Listen only on ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Sounds. Produced by Audio Always Producer: Rufaro Faith Mazarura Exec Producer: Jo Meek Sound Design: Craig Edmondson
