"La cathédrale engloutie" by Claude Debussy. I consider this piano work a spiritual masterpiece. It was inspired by an ancient legend about a cathedral submerged off the coast of a mythical island near Brittany. On clear mornings the grandiose cathedral rises out of the cold ocean waters and bells, monks chanting, and the sound of a mighty organ can be heard. Then, it slowly sinks back into the water and disappears. Only distant bells are faintly audible as a memory. Was it real or only a dream?
