Jean-Yves Thibaudet plays Debussy's Preludes

Synopsis

“Painter” – that is how Claude Debussy once answered the question of what profession he would have preferred to take up. His Préludes for piano, composed between 1909 and 1913, are like musical paintings whose impressive richness of tone colour invites the audience to let their imagination run free. French pianist Jean-Yves Thibaudet presents the complete cycle of these standard-setting compositions in an intimate concert in which the listener travels to snowy landscapes, the bottom of the ocean, a fairy ball, and much more. “A gourmet repast with refreshing contrasts of mood and texture.” (New York Classical Review). Programme: Claude Debussy: Préludes, Book I, L. 117 Préludes, Book II, L. 123 Edward Elgar: Salut d’Amour, Op. 12
