The description is not clear, but Debussy actually "recorded" this in a piano roll, so this is a mechanical reproduction of his actual playing.

at 1:10 debussy plays the main theme from wagner's opera "tristan and isolade" but, after playing it, he plays a sort of musical chuckle (at 1:15)

Splicing a cakewalk with Wagner's Tristan would be pretty insulting to someone of Wagner's mentality. Although I like this, and the other pieces of Children's Corner, the Liebestod from Wagners Tristan and Isolde makes me think of Un Chein Andalou.

Hah, I don't believe that the audio-tape is real! see, even Bartok's recordings of his time are bad quality compared to today's, but Debussy, who was even before... Hah a good joke by someone.

Welte was the best reproducing system of that decade, really. It did, to be fair, depend on a bit of post-performance editing to make sure of tempo consistencey and, of course, wrong notes turned to right.

Ok. For a while, Debussy respected Wagner. Then he started to poke fun at his music. There is a passage in this piece that is taken from what Wagner called "the most divine sound ever to be heard." This sound came from his Tristan.

Could you please explain what you mean?
