Here is a disc of purest piano-perfection. Having listened to it right through at one sitting, I can state that it has been one of the most perceptive, satisfying, seductive - indeed hypnotic - and rivetingly delightful discs of piano-playing I've encountered in a long time. Every one of these 18 miniature masterpieces emerges fresh, like finest jewels expertly sculpted. Not even the most familiar of them (like Arabesque 1, Cathedrale Engloutie, Fille aux Cheveux de Lin, Clair de Lune) fail to captivate and enchant the ear, such is the astonishing poetry, intense attention to detail, stunning control and superb virtuosity that this young lady consistently demonstrates. Layer upon layer of Debussy's sound-world is probed with unsurpassable skill, reverence for the composer's genius and unfailing instinct for the great man's intentions.Tracks:
This is an absolute triumph of a disc, exciting hopes that, despite the plethora of fine recordings of Debussy's complete piano works (all of which I possess, and all of which have something special to offer), Nino Gvetadze will go on to record the rest of his output, probably on 3 more CDs. And not only Debussy, please.
For here is a talent of rarest quality that must be nurtured, encouraged and hailed for what it surely is - a wondrous artistic phenomenon of our time, even though concert pianists of stellar potential seem to pop up every other month! This girl could make Carl Czerny's '40 Daily Studies' sound like vintage inspiration!!
Special congratulations should also go to Guido Tichelman and Ehud Loudar, the hidden magicians on the technical side behind this finished product. To you too, Orchid Classics, warmest thanks for introducing us to the rich, inexhaustible pleasure this blossoming artist is able to give. Her previous 3 CDs (of Rachmaninov, Mussorgsky and Liszt) were extremely impressive. But her Debussy tops them all.S. Mitchell @ Aamazon.com
