13,95

Claudio Constantini

Reflets Dans l´Eau is the wonderful first volume of what will become the collection of the complete piano works of Claude Debussy. In his interpretations, pianist Claudio Constantini captures the freshness and spontaneity of the music as if it had been composed yesterday. In this recording, the internationally acclaimed Peruvian pianist (the first Latin-American musician to record the integrale of Debussy piano works) makes use of his profound knowledge, intuition and impecabble technique, bringing to life such well known works as the Images or L´Isle Joyeuse, just as well as lesser known pearls like the Nocturne, Danse or Berceuse Heroique, to name a few. The repertoire selection spans over 25 years of Debussy´s compositional life and offers an excellent opportunity for listeners in getting acquainted with the music of one of the greatest composers in history. The second volume of Debussy works, due in spring 2016, will come as a two cd set and will include the complete Preludes, Estampes, and other piano works.
