Debussy in Pictures - Nino Gvetadze

Nino Gvetadze
I have been waiting for the moment to record Debussy 's music for some time.
While playing his pieces I had the urge to keep playing, to keep discovering the
colors, the touch, almost trying to reach for a perfection, which of course is not
possible; and the further I went, the deeper I looked, I kept discovering endless
possibilities for fantasy, and the images flew one after another into my head.
I did not want my next CD to be just the next CD; I wanted to do something
useful and as we are often discussing the lack of classical music education
among children and young people, I decided to do something about it from
my side and organized workshops mostly for children, but also for adults.
I decided that the best way for me to awaken musical interest in children, to
really lead them through music, was via drawings, so I asked them to close
their eyes, to listen to the sound, rhythm, harmony, melody and imagine what
would it look like if this piece was a drawing or a painting. Debussy 's music was
perfect for this project, as he gives you endless space for imagination. The
result was unexpected even for me, the enthusiasm that I saw in my young
public's eyes and the range of fantasy was truly amazing.
I worked with more than 200 children and received more than 200 beautiful
drawings. I may not have changed the world, but at least I opened the doors
to music to some kids and I hope they will follow the route to this beautiful
Muse throughout the years.
