If Clair de lune has become sonic wallpaper to you, this recording is the solvent. Dessay and Cassard do not perform Debussy; they inhabit him. The FLAC format is not snobbery; it is the necessary frame for this delicate watercolor. Without it, you lose the grain of the voice, the halo of the piano, and the silence between the raindrops.
But every generation, an artist comes along to rip the velvet off the piano strings.
