After the five-volume complete recording of Beethoven's Piano Sonatas Paavali Jumppanen's new recording on Ondine turns attention to Claude Debussy's (1862-1918) piano works. This release includes complete Préludes together with the Children's Corner. Debussy's oeuvre has been explored both by the amateur pianist and the most legendary virtuosos of the keyboard. Throughout his career Debussy sought new ways to express his musical vistas. He began numerous large compositional projects and between these big ventures wrote miniatures such as songs and piano pieces. Debussy's 24 piano preludes were published in two sets in 1910 and 1913. These miniatures are varied in character and style, and include, among others, references to literature, poetry, nature, the Mediterranean landscape and the events in Paris during Debussy's lifetime. The six pieces forming the cycle Children's Corner (1908) evoke adult recollections of childhood. The set bears a dedication to Debussy's daughter Chouchou and includes some of Debussy's most well-known piano pieces, including The Snow is Dancing and Golliwogg's cake walk. A dedicated performer of French music, Paavali Jumppanen often performs the large cycles of Debussy's late period, namely the Préludes and the Études.
