I never took French... I'm wondering how to pronounce the name of this Debussy piece.
Thank you so much
Del has given the correct pronunciation, but "Gradus ad Parnassum" (The steps/stairs to Parnassus) is Latin, not French.
Debussy Doctor Gradus Ad Parnassum
It is almost phonetic: Dok-tor Grah-doos ad Par-na-soom (the 'oo's are short as in 'book').
