The affinity of Walter Gieseking for the music of Debussy is nothing less than legendary. As Gramophone magazine wrote: "Debussy and Gieseking form an inseparable union where creator and recreator become one and the same person. Had Debussy lived to hear Gieseking he would surely have marvelled at such an uncanny identification with his very spirit." These miraculous recordings, dating from the early 1950s, continue to set a standard in the interpretation of the French master's music.
