Orchestral poetry woven with impressionistic colors
Debussy's orchestral works depict delicate expressions of light and shadow.
Charles Dutoit and the Montreal Symphony Orchestra conduct "Images" and "Nocturnes" in this masterful performance that captures the essence of Impressionist music. The rich tonal quality of the orchestra beautifully expresses Debussy's distinctive harmonic sensibility, evoking different scenes in each movement. The subtle changes in nuance in "Nocturnes" are particularly impressive, making this a recording that allows you to fully appreciate the aesthetics of French music.
