  • Sono letteralmente senza parole per questa interpretazione dei preludi! Canope raggiunge poi vertici assoluti di elevazione spirituale. Un momento di grande riflessione intimistica molto commovente.

  • I like this interpretation....

  • non penso si poss fare di meglio

  • This is such a poetic performance!

  • @HEEJINEH Debussy used texture to create form, hated "that damned German development", used modality (you'll never hear a true 'modulation'), and yes he used melody, it's usually harmonized, moving parallel with other notes.

  • this guy does some of the best debussy interpretations i've ever heard

  • @brainykid800 We're learning about this kind of music in my Music Theory class (I actually have to answer some questions about this piece for homework. :) I'm not trying to be a know-it-all or something, I just thought I would share.

    Also, @Klaus126 As my band director says "All dynamics are relative. No dynamic is absolute. There's no set piano, and there's no set forte. The dynamics build off of one another." I frequently see music where there will be a crescendo to a lower dynamic.

  • @ Jaydoggy531, HEEJINEH, and pianomikey0 Debussy's works Do actually have a melody, but the difference in this music, and music of an earlier time is that rather than following an actual scale like F, or d minor, it follows what theorists call a "collection," meaning that it follows a certain number of notes and is centric to one of those notes. The central pitch can usually be determined by looking at the pedal tones in the left hand (c)

  • @HEEJINEH

    His pieces heavily involve textures and motives rather than melodies. They aren't random notes by any means.

  • What am I supposed to listen for in Debussy? I love a few of his works, but most of his pieces sound like a lot of random notes to me...........

  • meravigliosa interpretazione!!!!
