@teramike11 That's a bit of a generalisation.,

[teramike11]

A unique and transcendent interpretation. Asians know the whole tones best . Very fluid, shimmering. Personal.

You had me within the first few bars....

@npelletier89 I agree - this must rank as one of his absolute best piano pieces

[jbrahms1833]

Yukino Kano has a natural affinity for Debussy. A most remarkable performance.

[npelletier89]
