Mariangella Vacatello, piano
The Debussy-year 2012 brought a wealth of reissues on the
market, but surprisingly few new recordings. Reason the more
to welcome this new recording of a generous selection of
Debussy piano works, centred around the substantial "12
Etudes".These works, written in the later stage of Debussy's
creative life, form the apotheosis of his style. Far from any
evocative "impressionistic" Tonmalerei or picturesque
atmosphere painting they are Debussy's answer to the Etudes
of Chopin, purely abstract creations of melody, harmony and
rhythm. Fiercely uncompromising and difficult, they form the
summit of Debussy's piano oeuvre, and one of the highest
challenges to any performing pianist.
The young Italian pianist Mariangela Vacatello likes challenges,
as was convincingly proven by her excellent recording of the
Liszt Transcendental Studies (Brilliant Classics): "...poetic and
playful, her technique knows no limits..a remarkable artist.."
(Piano News) and a "5 Star" review in the German magazine
Fono Forum.
