Walter Gieseking plays L'Isle Joyeuse by Debussy
Gieseking was a magician at the piano. It's easy to reference the elements of wind, water, fire, earth and sky to describe his playing. "L'Isle Joyeuse" (The Joyous Isle) by Claude Debussy, performed by Walter Gieseking. I set the music to various Impressionist paintings. A perfect example of the translucent sound world of Debussy. The definitive performance for me.
