I like the broad strokes of this interpretation, like a landscape painting... large-scale dynamics like curves of hills or mountains in the distance, soaring above all the weird intricacies of those runs and chords, yet perfectly timed to arrive at the key moments... and highlighted very precisely... feels instructive to be glimpsing such musical awareness...

This is the first time I've seen him play Debussy, and I think it's a wonderful and compelling performance. It's even more remarkable when you consider the breadth of his music - a masterful classical pianist and someone who has improvised his own cadenzas in Mozart concertos, as well as being a jazz pianist. Bravo

The was one of the more energetic performances I've ever heard, and Mr. Gulda made it work very well. He did something quite odd with the final note of the piece (and I've never heard it done that way anywhere else) and it certainly lets us know he had a complete command of the piano. A fine performance.

Yeah, what was that last note about? On a second listen... It's Ab, the fifth note of the scale Db major; and playing it this loud, gives us a sense of anticipation, like something's about to happen, as if we're hearing an implicit V chord (Ab)... it's like an incomplete ending or an unanswered question that evaporates into nothing, contrasting with the grounded low Db still ringing from before... an imaginary V chord, is like a doubly-unresolved ending... 😆 At least that's my attempt to make sense of it. It's definitely an interesting choice.

I’m not really sure it works. It’s a dreamy piece, floating, the Ab is too sharp and abrupt and loses the feel of the piece.

This beautiful piece is played too loudly by almost everyone, ruining the effect that was intended by Debussy. Perhaps it is so technically difficult that more attention must be paid to technique rather than sound. At any rate, it’s still several minutes of some of the most beautiful chords and arpeggios ever written.

@@enriquelobos950 Yes, and I’m a long-time pianist myself. If it’s not clear why this piece should be played more quietly as opposed to more loudly, I can’t help you. You are correct about the beauty of it in overall terms, though.

I think it's all wrong. First, Debussy isn't a funny guy, he composed the most desperate opera of that time, Pelléas et Mélisande. - Gulda doesn't bring some sadness to the end, but there is... about time passing, like reflections...
