Afternoon of a Puppy (L'apres-midi d'un chiot) gets the idea for its title from the tone poem Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun (Prelude a i'apres-midi d'un faune) composed by French Impressionist Claude Debussy in 1894. Like the Prelude, this piece is programmatic ? it is inspired or motivated by a non-musical idea. As you listen to this piece, imagine the exploits of a puppy through a typical afternoon.
