    This is so different to almost every other interpretation I've ever heard. His 16th notes almost sound like they are swung!

    What a masterpiece. I always was in love with this piece but hearing HIM playing it WITH HIS OWN HANDS? Hands down the best interpretation we can hear. I have goosebumps. He was a genius.

    this was so light and so fast, just like a summer breeze. Very interesting how rigorous he was with the rhythm, which is not something you expect in impressionism. It's so cool we can hear him!

    Stunning how different his crescendo is at 1:09 compared to every other version I have heard.

      @cball81 4 года назад +6

      I agree completely. I was talking with my daughter who is a pianist and I mentioned that I loved this version better than the others as the pace is a bit quicker and that crescendo makes it feel different. She has smaller hands and said that is such a tough stretch to make at that pacing.

      Hm, I was disappointed. Pardon me for saying it (I'm not a musician so maybe I lack appreciation for some aspects), but it sounds like at 1:11 he made an error...

    This piece was never recorded by Debussy, the pieces he played for Welte Mignon are well documented, this one is unfortunately not one of them. In this time of (accidental) misinformation we all need to be more accurate.

    Thanks for sharing this recording of this great prelude, played by the master himself. A little quicker than some, but a great performance. The direction "very calm... " doesn't necessarily mean slow, anyway.

      Take a look at this and you will understand m.ruclips.net/video/JQ47g2u1pIk/видео.html
      The roll was made 1913 and Debussy was playing himself then. And you do hear his way on an other piano. So sort of, it is the way he played it, with the sound of an other piano. So yes, he is playing. 1913”’!!! Isn’t it amazing!!!

      Unlikely. He didn't play this prelude among the five he recorded for Welte-Mignon. Only these: "Danseuses de Delphes", "Le vent dans la plaine", "La cathédrale engloutie", "La danse de Puck" and "Minstrels.

      I am not sure, but piano rolls don't necessarily the differences of dynamics (and of timbre) intended by the pianist ; but the nuances of tempo, certainly, and I find them fascinating in this case

      ​@@madrigal1956 The Welte-Mignon sistem was the most advanced one on recording the exact dynamics of the pianist. Many composers changed their interpretations of their own work, depending on the change of their taste.
