If you're into ethereal music that you can meditate to, and have an adventure ( i.e. not get bored ), then this cd is for you. I have insomnia more than half my nights, and this is the cd I put on to help me sleep. By the way, if a cd can put you to sleep I consider it great, as opposed to others who confuse relaxation with boredom. If a cd is horrible, I wont be able to fall asleep to it at all. This music is complex, beautiful, and very hard to play. I've been struggling with the Arabesque for about a month now, and I can even play the Rach 2, so it's not amatuerish. I have hundreds of classical cds, as for piano music, the top 3 are: David Helfgott plays Rachmaninoff's 3rd Concerto, Debussy Dreams, and Saint-Saen's complete Piano Concertos. Give this one a try.

A beautiful arrangement of Debussy's works. Each piece follows so well after the other that there is an artistic mastery in the sequence of the pieces. Very soothing to the soul. I especially love L'Cathedrale Engloutie. I can envision the creation of a magnificent cathedral to see it consumed in water at the end. I also love Estamps, Reverie, Clair de lune and the final Nocture. Very well performed and a treasure to have. My favorite CD of classical works.

WOW! What an amazing cd! Aldo Ciccolini puts forth a great effort in bringing out Debussy's music! The emotion and expression, especially in his Sarabande (Pour le piano) is absolutely tremendous! Other classics, such as his Nocturne, Arabesque and Clair de Lune, make this a cd that everyone should own! Claude Debussy was a dreamer, and his music was his dreams. It is very easy to get caught up in dreaming as you listen to this cd. I highly recommend this to anyone!
