Notes & Reviews:

Launched in 2005, Pascal Rogé's five disc survey of the piano works of Claude Debussy has been described as definitive. As each volume was released, the collection gathered additional acclaim from critics around the globe. Never intended to be a complete edition, the set contains the core masterpieces, coupled with some delightful shorter works and some of the lesser-known compositions. Gathered together in this specially-priced box set with new booklet notes, Rogé's recordings provide the ideal introduction to this great music, and his performances display an innate understanding and consummate artistry.

American Record Guide, November/December 2012
The only weak point in the set is Volume 4 (Etudes). The disc is only 54 minutes long, while the others are between 70 and 80 each. Julia Dahlkvist (above) dispatches these works in 48 minutes and includes nearly a half hour of additional music. I found RogT's approach almost too beautiful and carefully crafted, with not enough snap and virtuosity. But this is a weakness that is very easy to live with, and I am very happy to put RogT's set in my top five. It is also a bargain (like Ogawa's 6 for 2 BIS 1955 set, May/June 2012) priced at the cost of two discs. Onyx's sound, booklet notes, and production values are all top-notch.

Pianist Magazine, October/November 2012
Think of French piano music and Pascal Roge will likely one of the first names that comes to mind ... Everything is executed with great flair that is controlled by a fine, sensitive, musical mind.
