En vivo, Video: Buscador de críticas de conciertos de música clásica, ópera, ballet y danza | Préludes: Book 1

Maurizio Pollini, acogido en Madrid por la Fundación Scherzo, desplegó toda su sabiduría en un discurso pianístico profundamente personal.

Conmemoramos el centenario de la muerte de Debussy y en Madrid ya hemos tenido la oportunidad de escuchar todo un recital dedicado a su obra pianística, interpretado en por Daniel Barenboim en el marco de los conciertos de Ibermúsica.

In Chicago, the French pianist used the full toolbox in an impressive traversal of the character-filled pieces, some of his oldest friends.

Pollini's love for Chopin and Debussy was evident throughout an intimate recital as part of the Southbank Centre's in the International Piano Series.

In the year of the centenary of Claude Debussy's death, pianist Denis Kozhukhin gave a heady and colourful performance of music by Debussy and George Gerswhin, a composer deeply influenced by his French counterpart.

Inaugurant l'année Debussy en terre toulousaine, Daniel Barenboïm proposait, pour sa première venue à Toulouse dans le cadre de la programmation des Grands Interprètes, un récital entièrement consacré au compositeur et à l'exploration de son œuvre pour piano solo.

Alexander Melnikov's recital, surveying both books of Préludes, was highly individual, the Russian pianist twisting and pulling Debussy's scores as a child plays with plasticine. 

Sans doute l'un des plus beau récital entendu à Genève depuis ce début de saison: le style, l'émotion, la capacité de faire chanter son piano. Tout a concouru pour rendre à Beethoven et Debussy une émotion rare et sublime: chapeau Mr Goerner! 

Quand il joue, totalement absorbé en lui-même, les images vous arrachent subitement à votre siège pour recomposer d’immenses toiles. Alors, on ferme instinctivement les yeux, condamné à voyager à l’intérieur de soi.

A sensitive performance by pianist Pavel Kolesnikov revealed hidden nuances in Debussy's Préludes and L'isle joyeuse.

Fazıl Say plays at the Théâtre des Champs Elysées.

Anton Batagov's recital at the 3rd Eurasia Festival encouraged listeners to discover the sounds of invisible worlds.

Having only heard Pierre-Laurent Aimard on disc for the last few years it was curious to experience something rather different in the flesh, by way perhaps of that phenomenon, so often invoked as to be meaningless, of the artist for whom two concerts are never the same.

To perform so many of Debussy’s works in one sitting requires a certain amount of skill and understanding. The charismatic pianist Jean-Efflam Bavouzet opened our eyes to the impressionistic world of Claude Debussy in this special three-part concert for the Cheltenham Music Festival.

The stage was set at (Le) Poisson Rouge: a royal blue curtain and a brilliant red light contrasted nicely with the shine of the black and white piano. Simple yet bold, the stage was akin to a Mondrian painting. And as Scarlatti’s notes rolled off Alexandre Tharaud’s fingers, this striking visual matched the crisp performance perfectly.
