I give the exuberant compliments. This play leaves me spellbound , and gives me comfort and solace , and heals my tired mind and sorrow , and melts away my suffering and lamentation and anxiety , and purifies my stagnant soul .
Richter never ceases astonishing me. His demonic Beethoven, his passionate Schumann, his profound Schubert, his cristaline Bach, and this Debussy. He disappears into the music. There is no piano, nor pianist, only Debussy. Only the music. Very, very few can do that so beautifully.
I love Richter's interpretation on this. He takes me to his dream world with a beautiful echo behind and cause me to ponder even after the music finished.
In Debussy's interpretation, it is important if not crucial to be aware of the different layers included in the music and to render them ina diffentiated way. This is for instance the case of Pagodes. Richter has perfectly understood that and makes this layer rendering quite perceptible. A GREAT interpretation !
Eindrucksvolle live Interpretation dieses impressionistischen Meisterwerks im gut kalkulierten Tempo mit perfekt kontrollierter Dynamik. Sehr überzeugend!
His speed in Pagodes is exactly what I had in mind whenever I explored the piece years ago. I feel that the faster interpretations seem to lose the layered aspect of the piece.
Hoch kultivierte live Aufführung dieses impressionistischen Meisterwerks im perfekt analysierten Tempo mit glänzenden Töne des Klaviers und sorgfältig kontrollierter Dynamik. Bestimmt eine der zehn besten Aufführungen dieses Werks im 20. Jahrhundert!
“Estampes” es una red evocadora de territorios distintos por los que viaja el imaginario. No es necesario haber pisado una tierra para sentirla. Granada, mucho antes de visitarla por primera vez, la sentí brotar como un fruto caliente en mis entrañas hasta tal punto que cuando la conocí en aquel lejano 1962 vi lo que mi imaginación me sugería. De China prefiero seguir soñándola y, los jardines del Loira, sentirlos en el vaho de un despertar otoñal, cuando los frutos huelen. Y soñarlos al caer la tarde, a lo lejos, una ronda infantil que ya pocos cantan: Nous n'irons plus aux bois. Les lauriers sont coupés, la belle que voilà… hasta perderme en sus voces. Richter viaja sobre el teclado y, sin mayor añadidura que lo escrito, logra devolverme el ensueño. La potencia de la imaginación no tiene límites.
I'm not normally prone to picking a favourite but Richter's performance here is stunning. I love these pieces and I've heard many great performances but he is in a class by himself here. Wonderful, thank you for sharing.
Richter is a legend but Jean-Efflam Bavouzet is one of the top Debussy and French Classical music interpreters, in general, I've ever listened, he is my personal favorite but for Estampes, I love Richter's rendition. Also as someone already said, Gieseking seems so solid, too, even Debussy's wife stated that he is the closest pianist in terms of her husband's playing style.
I've always believed that Richter had an especial affinity and empathy in his performances of Debussy's pieces, which shines through here. From the layered pentatonic scales of Pagodes, to the habanera rhythms of La Soiree dans Grenade, to the playful French nursery rhyme motifs of jardins sous la pluie. Particularly notable are the dynamics and sonorities, which are so artfully executed by Richter here. Richter's interpretation is far and away my favorite for Debussy, especially here for Estampes.
I love the way Richter play ít.So slow and awesome.I need to search more for this name :Richter.I wish he still alive to play more for me.He´s alive in 2016?????😏
This is one of the best interpretations I have ever heard for the piece of Pagodes. The melodies and the rythms of Gamelan music are beautifully and truthfully materialised with suppressed nuance. A subtle still sharp switch in the procession of the piece is very pleasant, successfully depicting a vivid and static image of an oriental tower. I thank for his profound interpretations and respect for this piece as being originally from the Asian continent.
My worldly desires will be faded away by his tremendous performance . And my wandering soul will be healed and purified by his playing melody . 🍎 From effulgent Tokyo in profound Japan in winter Which national are you watching this video ?
The Esrampes evoke the far Eastern bt using charctristic pentatonic scales, Spain by using aldo typical modes an harmonies, and France by using some folkloric material in a very allusive way.
There is something extraordinary in his incomparable performance . Debussy,s beloved daughter , who has a great direct gene , died when she was 14 years old . The genes of the great Debussy,s direct lineage have disappeared from this world forever . It's very sad . If she had lived long , we might have heard of her or her child,s works . It's very sad . This incomparable pianist might have played her or her child,s works . From Tokyo in the dizzying Megalopolis ablaze with neon lights Which national are you watching this video ?
Being the descendant of a great composer doesn't automatically make you a great one; Rachmaninov had 2 daughters, neither one of which I'm aware was a composer. What is more helpful is if another musician of immense talent gets to study with the great composer. Then you get Beethoven building off of Haydn, Liszt building off of Beethoven, Brahms building off of Schumann. Interestingly, some of the great composers who studied with other greats wrote music that is quite a bit different from their predecessors.

This piece is one of those reasons why I love piano so much.
Moi aussi !
Thank god the goat played this piece - easily the best recording of these 3 pieces
Richter's playing brings tears to my eyes.
Such control, balance, poise, poetry. In a class of its own.
I give the exuberant compliments.

Don‘t forget his Chopin!
... and his Rachmaninov and Prokofiev...

this is really genius - both piece and performance
Richter has to be the most magical pianist to ever draw breath.

I confirm, very nice chord.
Wait guys let me play this chord and verify this is a nice chord
Verified nice chord here
Nice mystic chord, mate

Yeah Gérard. You got perfectly to the point !!
I think he overdid it, many of the layers seem overexposed.

Perfect picture imagery in sound. Wonderfully imaginative playing.
So Sublime..I'm in awe while listening to this beautiful performance.
Richter, the Best ever !
the greatest estampes. poetic awe.
Debussy Estampes, one of my all time favorites!
Я слышал «Эстампы» у него в живом концерте (Киев, 08/10/1978).
Фантастика!

Pedro, que belas palavras! Le vent et la musique nous prendont et sauveront. Abrazos, desde Brasil.
Merci André, vent et musique nous sauveront, j'en suis sûr.
Es muy hermoso lo que nos comparte. Viajamos en lo imaginario y no hay un destino.
Bellissima evocazione

O
best estampes ever,no doubts!
You can spend a entire year searching but you won't find any interpretation better than his
Sergio Fiorentino is better.
Walter Gieseking is also very good
Arrau is as good, imo

Best interpretation I've ever heard
I feel the vanity of the human life. Only blowing wind. My heart is hollow. This work is deep and heavy.
Thank-you very much to your excellent and pensive performance from effulgent Tokyo in profound Japan 🍎

Richter the GOAT
There is something extraordinary in his incomparable performance .
Debussy,s beloved daughter , who has a great direct gene , died when she was 14 years old .
The genes of the great Debussy,s direct lineage have disappeared from this world forever .
It's very sad .
If she had lived long ,
we might have heard of her or her child,s works .
It's very sad .
