Roger Woodward - Claude Debussy Preludes Books 1 & 2

Australian Exclusive Release - This is concert pianist, Roger Woodward's first-ever complete recording of both books of the Preludes by Claude Debussy. After a highly successful concert at the Chamber Music Hall of Radio Bremen in northern Germany, Woodward stayed on a few days for the recording. He enjoyed the ambiance, a magnificent Bosendorfer piano, restored by a factory technician for the recording, tuned to perfection and engineered beautifully. Altogether, it presents Australia's leading concert pianist at his very best, a recording which he himself singles out as a major achievement of a career now spanning close to five decades.
