After a series of popular and award-winning recordings running over a wide range of the piano repertoire, Jean-Efflam Bavouzet is a well-known name in the piano lover’s world. But back in the 90’s, Bavouzet was just a name on a little known Japanese label specializing in piano music. The Études as presented here by Bavouzet are marvels of musical insight and control. Debussy’s studies of tone and rhythm are brought to life with understated virtuosity. Bavouzet plays with great subtlety and fluency and the results are completely engaging. The Children’s Corner is equally compelling. An entrancing creation of swirling colours and emotions, at no stage does Bavouzet allow Debussy’s whimsical setting for this collection of musical tableaux to become cloying or distracting. Also on this disc presented other Debussy’s works as Page d’album, Berceuse héroïque, La plus que lente, and Elégie. As with the Etudes, the recorded sound of the piano is miraculously good. The recording was made in 1996 but not released by the Japanese label, Octavia Records, until 2005. This perhaps explains its obscurity relative to Bavouzet’s more recent recordings of the same material.
