Claude Debussy: Les soirs illumines par l'ardeur du charbon
Les soirs illumines par l'ardeur du charbon
July 2007
****
“Jean-Efflam Bavouzet has a wonderfully light touch, imbuing 'Les collines d'Anacapri' with a skittish exuberance, or creating delicate wisps of mist in 'Brouillards' evoking Debussy's advice to forget that the piano has hammers. The opening of 'La terrasse des audiences au clair de lune' floats languorously, captured in marvellous sound, with warm bass textures and clarity without harshness in the piano's upper registers.”
July 2007
“…Bavouzet commands all the shading, nuance and timbral sensitivity one expects in Debussy, together with virtuoso flair and characterful spontaneity that adds welcome backbone to the composer's "hammerless" aesthetic.”
2011 edition
“Debussy playing does not come any better than this”
