Clair de Lune


Simon Trpceski (piano)

Reviewing a performance by Trpceski of Debussy’s Images (Book I), The Seattle Times wrote earlier this year “Here is a pianist who really gets to the heart of the Impressionist style, one who can make the textures shimmer.” The Toronto Star said (of Images Book II): “he turned ordinary notes into gently shimmering cascades of colour, finally building up to the rollicking, occasionally jazzy ‘Poissons d’or.’ His playing was so perfect that it took an effort to remember to breathe while listening.”

“Following his fire-eating Chopin recital, Simon Trpceski retreats into Debussy's more withdrawn poetry and fantasy with an ease and delicacy that suggest, once more, a wholly exceptional artist.” Gramophone Magazine, March 2008

Emil Gilels (piano)

Emil Gilels was one of the greatest Russian pianists of the twentieth century, born in Odessa in 1916.

The recordings on this first disc of his early recordings, made in the USSR, come from the first stage of Gilels’s career and include his first known recordings from1935.

Leopold Godowsky’s arrangement of the Gigue by Jean-Baptiste Loeillet immediately shows the immense power the nineteen-year old Gilels had at the keyboard. His playing, especially in his youth, was fiery, volatile and exciting, and even late in his career it still retained grandeur and sweep of a great master in the Russian tradition.

“Gilels had a sense of grandeur tempered by discipline and respect for the text….strong and massive without being harsh…. A fine pianist.” BBC Music Magazine

“Here was a real artist, and a real communicator.” BBC Music Magazine
