A century after his death on 25 March 1918, many harmonia mundi artists are eager to pay tribute to Claude Debussy, the magician of melody and timbre, the great ‘colourist’ and father of modern music. Alexander Melnikov is among those pianists increasingly committed to playing the works of the past on the instruments on which they came into being (or could have done so). And so it is on a ‘period’ piano (an Érard piano ) that he breathes new life into Book II of the Préludes, but also – with the help of Olga Pashchenko – the extraordinary transcription of La Mer by the composer himself.

Un siècle après sa disparition le 25 mars 1918, de nombreux artistes harmonia mundi ont voulu rendre hommage à Claude Debussy, magicien de la mélodie et du timbre, grand “coloriste” et père de la musique moderne. Alexander Melnikov fait partie de ces pianistes qui, de plus en plus, s’emploient à jouer les œuvres du passé sur les instruments qui les ont fait – ou auraient pu les faire – naître. Et c’est précisément sur un piano Érard d’“époque” qu’il redonne vie aux Préludes, mais également – grâce à la complicité d’Olga Pashchenko – à l’extraordinaire transcription de La Mer due au compositeur lui-même.
