Impressionistic; Masterwork.
Composed in 1905 this volume
of Images, comprised of three
contrasting pieces,
demonstrates conciseness, deep
dramatic content and colorful
tonal imagery. Debussy
established Impressionism as a
pianistic style and used
evocative terms to shed light
on the mood or character of
each piece. Maurice Hinson
translates the French titles
into English and offers
practice suggestions to assist
the performer. Also included
is an outstanding CD recording
from the Naxos label. |
