Released on November 1, 2008, under the Chandos label, this album is a testament to Debussy's mastery of the classical piano genre. Spanning a duration of 1 hour and 16 minutes, this collection offers a comprehensive exploration of Debussy's piano works, featuring pieces from "Images pour piano, Book I," "Images, Book 2," and "Études."
The album begins with the evocative "Images pour piano, Book I," where Debussy's signature impressionistic style shines through in tracks like "Reflets dans l'eau" and "Hommage à Rameau." The second book of "Images" continues this exploration, with pieces such as "Cloches à travers les feuilles" and "Poissons d'or" showcasing Debussy's ability to paint vivid musical landscapes.
