Is Clair de Lune by Debussy a difficult piece to play on piano?
You’ll definitely need to get your hands on a pure piano solo piece, without the flute. The piece can be difficult at first attempt, but once you start working on it, you will notice a lot of repetitive motifs and chord structures. Once you are not completely dependent upon seeing the music, it should come along quite nicely. The hardest challenge of this piece though, is ensuring that you make it musical. Impressionism requires a great amount of control and lyricism. Playing this piece without those is just as bad as playing this piece with all the wrong notes.
