Pierre-Laurent Aimard, piano
The pianist’s profound affinity for the music of Claude Debussy is revealed on this album. It is his celebration of the composer’s 150 birthday in 2012. In a recent interview, Aimard described Debussy’s music as “so admirably realized, so perfectly crafted and so carefully weighed. At the same time, these Preludes are very demanding and very rich; they are a wonderful alchemy in sound.”
