Canadian pianist Angela Hewitt has devoted many creative energies to Bach, and it shows in this reading of Debussy favorites (and a few less common works): Hewitt's is a rather precise and tempo-consistent Debussy, light on the atmospherics but with technical agility to spare. What you'll think of this may well depend on how you see the nature of Debussy's break with the French Romantic tradition: did it involve a dryness of expression, or is the usual hazy vision the right one? If your answer tends toward the former, you're likely to find Hewitt's playing a revelation here. Even if you don't, there are many nice moments, like the perfectly balanced grace of Clair de lune (track 9) and of the lesser-known Deux arabesques (tracks 12 and 13).

This is the Debussy disc to buy if you're buying only one. All of the best and most popular orchestra music is here (the second of the "Images" is the well-known tone poem "Iberia"). Salonen must have the keenest ear in the business–no "impressionist" fuzz here. Musical textures are extraordinarily clear, but never at the expense of the music's natural sensuality. The Los Angeles Philharmonic has been playing at the very highest technical level ever since Esa-Pekka Salonen took over, and Sony has been documenting their work in top-quality sound. There are a lot of Debussy recordings, many of them very good, but it's hard to beat the all-around excellence of this one. –David Hurwitz

This is an extremely welcome release for fans of Michael Tilson Thomas: the first CD appearance of a legendary recording with the Boston Symphony he made (as its new assistant conductor) in March 1970. At that point (still only in his mid-20s), Tilson Thomas was becoming notorious for introducing provocative new music by the likes of Steve Reich, but he was also stirring up a rather moribund classical music scene. Just imagine the ethos in those days, when talk of the demise of the symphony orchestra as an absurd irrelevance was gloomier even than it is now: in rushed MTT with a super-infusion of excitement and confidence to rouse the players–and the audience. MTT was already proving his deep affinity with Russian composers (which would be followed many years later by his enormously successful accounts of Prokofiev and Stravinsky).

Between post-Romanticism and Symbolism, three masterpieces for cello and piano, created between 1865 and 1915 on either side of the Rhine. And two young talents of the twenty-first century who present their enthralling vision of these three facets of ‘Art Nouveau’.

Particularly inspired, the disc opens with a simple and collected view of the Opus 38 of Brahms: it reminds us of the legendary one of Starker and Sebok, that's all saying. The dialogue of the two interpreters transpires intimacy, fusional spontaneity. An extremely distinct soundtrack makes all the more disturbing the flow of moods and ideas that unites the keyboard of Laloum unceasingly to the dreamy bow of Julien-Laferrière. Totally masters of their emotions, which only sound more sincere, the two young interpreters confirm the maturity that earned them a Diapason d'or at Brahms, shared with the clarinettist Raphael Severe.
