Debussy

2017 CLASSICAL ARTIST OF THE YEAR finalist

This wonderful recording combines works from the opposite ends of Debussy’s career. The Piano Trio is among Debussy’s first works for piano, written while he was employed by Tchaikovsky’s patron, Nadezhda von Meck. It evinces the spirit of the age in Paris, as seen through a young man finding his voice. Charming and amiable, it is salon music in the best sense, the type that amateurs would play together in those evenings so well described by writers such as Marcel Proust.
