Debussy: 20 Favourites for Piano

Description

“this may yet prove to be one of the finest Debussy cycles on record” “Tirimo has a quite exceptional temperamental affinity … (he takes) us into Debussy’s world and lets us experience its magic … do acquire it if you appreciate fine Debussy playing” (Gramophone) “probably first choice for those wanting a modern digital recording of the complete set…playing is very fine, recording most realistic and natural” (Penguin Guide)
