Editorial Review:
Amazon.com essential recording:
Pierre Boulez made his early reputation as a Debussy conductor, and with good reason. Debussy's reputation as a musical "impressionist" led most people to think of him as a sort of musical Claude Monet--all blurry outlines and fuzzy images--but Boulez changed this perception, bringing an analytical clarity and razor-sharp definition to the composer's musical mosaics. What he has achieved in this second series of Debussy recordings is an additional naturalness and spontaneity of expression. The Cleveland Orchestra is the ideal vehicle for this sort of interpretation, being perhaps the most technically precise band in the world. The result is just about perfect. -- David Hurwitz

I can't think of a better introduction to the music of Claude Debussy than this Deutsche Grammophon disc where Pierre Boulez leads the Cleveland Orchestra in four legendary orchestral works. Debussy's music has been called "Impressionistic" because of the vividness of his colours and the vagueness of his forms. The exact large-scale organization of many of his works confound scholars still today. However, the fuzzy textures are worked up through a myriad of small details, and Boulez gives one the ...

This is a wonderful album to listen to taking you on a joyful journey. If you like Debussy you'll love this. If your looking for something a little different to the run of the mill classical music this is one I would recommend.

There are many fine recorded performances of Debussy's masterpiece "La Mer." Some of the best are by Munch/BSO, Dutoit/Montreal, Casadesus/Lille, and Plasson/Toulouse. In addition, we have the classic readings of Karajan/Berlin, Szell/Cleveland and Toscanini/NBC, not to mention the outstanding DVD of Abbado and the Lucerene Orch. The present disc by Boulez and Cleveland joins the crowd with a very clear, clean performance that allows you to hear all the inner voices. Someone once said that Boulez ... Read More

I join the throng of five-star reviews for this fabulous CD of Debussy specialties including "La Mer" and "Nocturnes". While Pierre Boulez clearly has the training, background, intuition and temperament to define these exquisite works, it is hard to imagine the bad press this CD received when it came out, mainly in England, where one critic said Boulez "eviscerated" the first movement of "La Mer".
That's nonsense, of course. Boulez's performances in these four staples from the Debussy ... Read More

When SF Symphony played Jeux last year, MTT described to the audience why the orchestra loved to play the piece, calling it "chamber music for orchestra". Their performance brought out details of the score that demonstrated why they were so enthusiastic. I went through a number of recordings searching for one that provided the same clarity I heard that night, allowing the listener to appreciate the interplay of the various parts. This is it. And it comes with a wonderful version of La Mer as well. ... Read More
