  • have you ever noticed how half the people on youtube are experts! If it's a cooking video, the chef is doing it wrong, if it's a musician he's playing it wrong-if you can do any better, show us, if not shut up and let everyone else enjoy it.

  • If God could play the piano could He ever play like Michelangeli ?

  • I prefer Walter Gieseking.

  • Has this ever been released on dvd?

  • Michelangeli has prob the best Debussey interpreter of all time.

  • Bravo---@jamesjonesrocket

  • The 11 dislikes were mistakes hitting the the wrong key, as they were drunk IMO.

  • good

  • @bluesborn

    Well, thank you very much for your kind words!

    'Classical' music isn't a good term for a lot of so-called music, indeed.

    If you like Debussy' music, you'll probably like Fauré's, Chabrier's, Poulenc's, Ravel's, Satie's and many other French composers' as well.

    Greetings from Flanders/Belgium in spring,

    Geert.

  • @geertdehoux -I checked out your site and was very impressed with your playing.Although I love all music I confess my knowledge of "Classical music" (for lack of a better term)is minimal at best.I am quite familiar with Debussy although I haven't heard the interpretations you mentioned,unless I have done so unwittingly.Good luck in all your musical endeavors.

  • @bluesborn

    OK.

    Do you know Krystian Zimmerman's and Alfred Cortot's recordings of the Debussy Preludes ?

    Although very different of each other's, I like them very much!

    A cordial greeting,

    Geert Dehoux, pianist.

    Flanders/Belgium.

  • @geertdehoux I suppose that was a little vague.My point is he "inhabits" this music.He seems very much "at home" in its sonic landscape.
