Details:
This album features the piano music of French composer Claude Debussy, who challenged the musical traditions of his day by turning to the sounds and rhythms of nature. Each piece is a painting in sound, shimmering in light, color, and texture, elusive of definition yet fulfilling the promise of its programmatic title: Clair de lune (Light of the moon), Reflets dans l'eau (Reflections in the water), Cloches a travers les feuilles (Bells travel through the leaves), Et la lune descend sur le temple qui fut (And the moon descends upon the temple ruins), and Poissons d'or (Goldfish).
