He telescopes the 4th and 3rd bars before the end to one measure; Horowitz streches them out to 4 measures. Odd.
Balances are good, virtuosity impressive . . . but I find this performance lacking in poetry. Probably because it's much too fast.
-
Perhaps just a little bit slower would be wishful, but the sound of Giseking is do beautiful that it does not matter!
-
I love Gieseking in general, but this "L'Isle joyeuse" suffers from a "rushed orgasm"! But the virtuosity is undeniable.
-
Gieseking can paint with his notes! Beautiful!
-
I don't think that anyone but Gieseking really got the ending right. Beautiful.

A perfect example of the translucent sound world of Debussy. The definitive performance for me.

Gieseking was a magician at the piano. It's easy to reference the elements of wind, water, fire, earth and sky to describe his playing.
