These files are part of the Orchestra Parts Project. String parts engraved, others are produced from copyist's manuscript. These parts correspond to Debussy's revised orchestration and do not at times (e.g. wind scoring at the start of Fetes) match the contents of the first-edition full scores at IMSLP.
