Michelangeli and Debussy - the two names bring to mind beautiful masterpieces for piano. That is what was produced whenever the master pianist, Michelangeli, sat down at a piano to play Debussy, as he did here in the complete cycle of Debussy's Preludes, Book (Livre) 1, a group of tone poems, along with Book 2, in the form of Preludes for Piano.

One of Debussy's most popular works makes it's place as the eighth piece in Book 1. 'La fille aux cheveux de lin' ("The girl with the flaxen hair") is one of Debussy's most recorded and revolutionary works and the piece has been transcribed for everything from chamber to orchestra. The piece's tempo is marked as 'Tres calme et doucement expressif'.

Enjoy!
