Rafal Blechacz plays Szymanowski and Debussy (Interview)

http://www.deutschegrammophon.com/artist/biography?ART_ID=BLERA

Watch Rafał Blechacz speak about his new DG recording featuring piano works by Szymanowski and Debussy. The young pianist is by talent, proclivity, and nationality the perfect choice to record works by his fellow Pole, Szymanowski. And therefore to record Debussy, too -- whose presence in Szymanowski's musical DNA looms large.

For the first time on record Rafał Blechacz plays Szymanowski's reverie-inducing music -- a revelation to those unfamiliar with it. Debussy's Impressionist soundscapes (also new to Rafał Blechacz's discography) -- including Pour le piano and Estampes -- are a natural fit for a Chopin expert such as he.
