I see a lot of critiques about the speed in which this wonderfully talented lady is playing this piece. It does not matter the speed. It is ALWAYS the artist interpretation as to how THEY want to express themselves. Like it or not, this is a beautiful interpretation of this piece and I enjoyed it immensely. Thanks for sharing Ms. Gvetadze.

In my mind I'm standing in a very nice home in the Santa Barbara Riviera, looking out of a large bay window streaked with rain, a thunderstorm furiously pouring rain out of dark angry skies. A fire place flickering licks of flames. A hot mug of hot chocolate in my hands, and this playing on a Bang and Olufson CD player and speakers. Oh I'm in heaven.

Debussy plays the keys as if they were words and he is telling a story, and this, one of my favorite pianists, told the story as i truly believe Debussy wanted to be told. This is her voice in her hands.

I'm agree with Dawg Man, this version is for me the best. I listened many version, but they was too slow... Is good for sleep. This on is just perfect, it is a version of our time, in one word MODERN 👍
