Remarks:
This is the final volume in Jean-Efflam Bavouzet's much acclaimed series of the solo piano works of Debussy. The disc consists of the composer's piano transcriptions of the three ballet scores 'Khamma', 'Jeux' and La 'Boite a joujoux.' Jean-Efflam comments: 'In my opinion the transcriptions can offer greater clarity and organisation of musical discourse. Young conductors have told me that they understand the score of 'Jeux' better after hearing the version for two pianos [recently prepared by Bavouzet]... for those who do not know these three ballets in their original orchestral versions, this disc may give them the curiosity to explore the works further.' With 'Jeux,' Jean-Efflam condensed his own published arrangement for two pianos, which resulted in this being 'one of the most difficult works that I have played'.
