Durand, without question.

Really? I thought the Durand edition had typographical errors.

true

The Peters Urtext edition (if I'm talking about the same one as you are), the Alfred edition (edited by Nancy Bricard), and the Schirmer-Casadesus edition have the corrections to the typographical errors.

Thanks for correcting me.  I was under the impression that Durand was the best edition for all of Debussy and Ravel.
