Jumppanen approaches these preludes armed with preternaturally fine dynamic control, a keen sense of shape & structure, and wonderful imagination (when the score says “caressingly”, you hear it, and Jumppanen is one of those who actually separates his mezzo-pianos, pianos, and pianissimos). The tempi in the slower preludes can get really very slow, but these are in service of colours that appear to stop time. And the characterisation you get in many of these is just perfect - the grand prismatic architecture of the ‘Submerged Cathedral’, the wry & slightly weird menace of ‘Wine Door’, the sparks of ‘Fireworks’, one moment festive & balmy, and the next mesmeric and dangerously close, so that you almost feel in danger of getting burnt.

The Untitled Goose Game seriously has me wanting to finally learn all of these...and then put on a recital. I seriously was so excited when I heard Debussy Preludes.
Thank you Ashish for uploading these pieces with such quality. Your videos have the best audio quality of all sheet music channels, and you even write amazing descriptions with deep analysis. Thank you for giving us the most enjoyable sheet music video experience!
If a game can get people into classical music that would be the greatest accomplishment. I'm sad I never knew about this, I love Debussy and had never heard of it. Thanks Goose Game!
@@toothlesstoe I never thaught about that but after comparing some of the preludes with your words in mind (especially les collines) I was really shocked. The only one where I like Zimerman's sharp version more is La Danse de Puck. I will have to choose one of both recordings of the preludes for my personal hall of fame but I already am also really positively surprised by this pianist's understanding and already can identity with this interpretation pretty good.
Its a very beautiful and imaginative piece, I was at a live concert and i felt so immersed. If its your first time listening these preludes you should close your eyes and think of the music and compare your interpretations to Debussy's as the preludes title is purposely in the end so you dont immediately know what Debussy's ment and instead figure it out by the harmony and the specifically placed notes.
Debussy is one of a handful of composers that I look to for musical calming (if that makes sense). This beautiful collection of works is a much needed respite. Thank you for posting.
I love how poetic Debussy's directions are: "with the sound of distant horns" at the end of Sons et Parfums, "sounding like a melancholy, frozen landscape" in Des Pas Sur la Neige, "with profound calm, in a gently resounding mist" in La Cathedrale. These are some of my favorite pieces ever written, and Jumppanen plays them very well. I first heard Gieseking's recording of these, and Gieseking plays them far too quickly. I like the slower tempos, like in Collines, which allows you to really hear the notes of the song in it.
No performance is as intriguing and captivating as Jumppanen’s performance Jumppanen’s Debussy is inspirational and magnificent, and full of admiration and emotion FromTokyo
Interesting to hear these from a (relatively) unknown pianist, thanks for shedding light on some deserving musicians! That being said, it would be great to compare this interesting interpretation with one of the more "established" recordings, such as the complete set by Paul Jacobs, Krystian Zimerman, or Stephen Osbourn. In any case...this music never gets old or repetitive to hear!
Such a lovely sound. I do love the rich deep sounds when you hear notes from the bottom octave on the piano -which is one reason I like Debussy's music. He tends to make use of the full length of the 88-note keyboard. One reason I lost interest in learning piano for a few years as a child was Dad's stupidity in getting a 73-note mini piano. Only after he died when I was 14 and I got my own proper piano did I start to go back to it again.
Something interesting about the two most lyrical preludes, The Girl With the Flaxen Hair and Bruyeres, the structures of the two pieces are quite similar. Both land on the IV chord and we hear the melody repeated in a higher octave toward the ends of both pieces.
51:01 Ворота Альгамбры 22:10 То, что видел западный ветер 3:47 Паруса 44:03 Туманы 7:37 Ветер на равнине 9:50 Звуки и запахи реют в вечернем воздухе 14:20 Холмы Анакапри 17:50 Шаги на снегу
Great version! But i think that Juppanen's interpretation is quite more rough and less sweet and charming than others. Many sweets and charming parts of this preludes (f.e. the tender motive of "La Sérénade interrompue") are played on a harshly way, and rougher parts like the West wind are played way to slow, and delicate, when if it's the wind, it must be savage and "détaché". The Cathédrale Engloutie is played slow and soft when it must be the Cathédrale going gloriously up and it's played fast and unpassioned when the climax-organ part comes in. Bruyères is played as well more improvisatory than deep. I think that each of these preludes are philosophical reflexions, and have to be played like this, deep, philosophical, humoristic sometimes and cautiously, elements that i didn't heard in Juppanen's interpretation. Anyways, when I saw the notification I remembered that Ashish uploaded Zimmerman's version as well. So, anyone knows what happened with Zimmerman's preludes video? :( I couldn't find it anywhere.
I agree w you this composer didn't fully intimate w the compositions. Also the footsteps in the snow he played too fast during most of the piece. He didn't really get the 'triplet within the triplet' in the motif for every half note. At the speed of his first triplet he plays he should be enlongating the rest of the half note much more.
'9: Interrupted serenade - A guitarist tries to serenade a potential lover, but is interrupted.' Really? Come on! "La serenade interrompue" is a clear hommage to the great Isaac Albéniz! If you listen to "El Albaicín" and then this prelude you will be able to notice Albéniz's influence on Debussy (at least on this piece and La Soriée dans Grenade). Anyway, great video descriptions: I really like these music channels :D
How can you call Les tierces alternées a "bone dry etude"? The third is one of the more vibrant intervals, and the shading Debussy produces with it in that prelude is truly dazzling.
Claude Debussy's Preludes, played here with the sheet music by the extraordinary pianist, Jumppanen, are sensitive, nuanced, and moving. Enjoy the experience! The 2nd one at 3:45 has a mystical vibe.
My ears are telling me there are misread accidentals in bar 29-30 of Feuilles mortes. I think he's playing D#'s instead of Es in the second chord in each group - should be B#-E-G natural-B#. Perhaps also in the preceding bars. Can someone check?!
I never had a favorite composer before I stumbled upon your channel (its Franz Liszt now btw). Thank you for all of the uploads and the insightful commentary on the pieces and performers!
@Tyler Gerhardt in the description Ashish meantions other great preludes and he said scirabins late preludes, so he's saying the early one aren't that great.
@@powergaming3429 no I think that both sets are great, perhaps Ashish intended that the op.74 are more iconic since they're more original and written in Scriabin's "official" style if you know what I mean
Des Pas sur la Neige, and La Fille aux Cheveux de lin are the easiest, although Des Pas requires very good tonal control to sound interesting. La Fille is usually the first prelude taught. Also Danseuses de Delphes is fairly easy. If I were going to rank Book I in order from easiest -> hardest it would go 8, 6, 1, 10, 4, 2, 12, 9, 3, 11, 5, 7. La Cathedrale gets harder if you have small hands, and seriously tests your pedalling, but it's technically not so difficult. West Wind is the hardest of the set by a *lot*. Book II would go 5, 10, 9, 2, 6, 1, 3, 7, 8, 11, 4, 12, and again, Fireworks is the hardest. Supposed to be the hardest prelude in the set but I think West Wind is hardest. La Fille and Des Pas are easier than anything in book 2.
it's a direct quotation of god save the queen. Prelude #9 is titled "Hommage à S. Pickwick Esq. P.P.M.P.C" referencing the titular character of Charles Dickens’ The Pickwick Papers so Debussy is bringing in a bunch of "English" associations and vibes
My score for La Cathedrale has only the contra-C for the big tolling bell-sound during the climax, not a C octave. I wonder which is correct? I've heard both (with just the lowest C and with octaves) in various recordings.
Jumppanen approaches these preludes armed with preternaturally fine dynamic control, a keen sense of shape & structure, and wonderful imagination (when the score says “caressingly”, you hear it, and Jumppanen is one of those who actually separates his mezzo-pianos, pianos, and pianissimos). The tempi in the slower preludes can get really very slow, but these are in service of colours that appear to stop time. And the characterisation you get in many of these is just perfect - the grand prismatic architecture of the ‘Submerged Cathedral’, the wry & slightly weird menace of ‘Wine Door’, the sparks of ‘Fireworks’, one moment festive & balmy, and the next mesmeric and dangerously close, so that you almost feel in danger of getting burnt. There are many great recordings of the preludes out there, but few are as haunting as this one.

Wow, I don't think I've ever heard a more potent rendering of these preludes by any other pianist that I'm aware of. Glad I discovered this pianist.
What is your opinion on Krystian Zimerman? I would just be really interested.
@@felixmladenov I'm not a fan of his interpretation. Sounds too aggressive, curt, and dry at certain moments, especially in Les collines d'anacapri.

Both books : Prelude I and II are just beautiful 🥰🤍🤍 !
Indeed, the work « Ondine » by DEBUSSY has nothing similar with RAVEL !
How can you call Les tierces alternées a "bone dry etude"? The third is one of the more vibrant intervals, and the shading Debussy produces with it in that prelude is truly dazzling.
You are alive!!!! :,)
an extraordinary musical vocabulary... beautiful
what a special piano harmony! my admiration

5:54 listen to those overtones scream.
screaming overtones is a nice oxymoron haha
27:43 One of the greatest deceptive cadences of all time
59:40 I though he was gonna play the star wars theme
First time I heard star wars theme i thought they were going to play Debussy's prelude.
Exactly
haha that's funny! yeah bright kinda heroic sounding melodies in Bb are definitely difficult to not hear star wars :)
Claude Debussy's Preludes, played here with the sheet music by the extraordinary pianist, Jumppanen, are sensitive, nuanced, and moving. Enjoy the experience! The 2nd one at 3:45 has a mystical vibe.
If the piano resides in the center of our human universe as the apex of invented instruments, then Debussy ‘s music emanates eternally.

I am responsible for half of the views. I've never been so obsessed with a collection of music before these preludes
Still am

Is there any better WFH music than Debussy? Thanks for this upload.
The Girl With the Flaxen Hair and Submerged Cathedral are the best pieces.
This is spectacular, thank you !!
"les fees sont d'exquises danseuses" is very reminiscent of Ravel's "noctuelles" i find

Thank you for posting dude!
Best youtube channel
My ears are telling me there are misread accidentals in bar 29-30 of Feuilles mortes. I think he's playing D#'s instead of Es in the second chord in each group - should be B#-E-G natural-B#. Perhaps also in the preceding bars. Can someone check?!
I never had a favorite composer before I stumbled upon your channel (its Franz Liszt now btw). Thank you for all of the uploads and the insightful commentary on the pieces and performers!
If you like Liszt I've got some scored rare pieces of his on my channel :D
Andrei Cristian Anghel It’s crazy how much I see you everywhere! Love your work
Nice

1:12:45 god save the queen anyone?
The Little Shepherd, Children's Corner Suite.....with a dose of Jimbo's Lullaby, and maybe a little ... of everything else.
thank you as always, where do you/can i get good reviews, or recommended recordings of classical music? thx
IT'S REAL GOOSE HOURS
Really good description !
Do you plan on doing contemporary pieces like Messiaens Vingt Regards?
Aren't impressionism and prelude's a perfect combination?
1:22:20 hmmmm, sounds like Liszt's "Scherzo und Marsch"
sounds like flight of the bumble b-flat by Ben Lee
Just sound a little bit like Liszt.. but absolutly not like his Scherzo ..
DeGOOSEy
Thanks for your work
I really don't know if you care but theres an editing error at 48:05
This Debussy guy is awesome, when's his next album coming out?
Heard his last mixtape is a bop
I talked with him a few times, he said to check out Ravel if no new albums were coming later that month.
It'll be "Debussy Unplugged", just like the last 3 :-D
You can hear the pianist breathe heavily during the Cathédrale Engloutie x)
Boi you is a savage, scirabins 'late' preludes 😂
Power Gaming lol, I am wondering which late set. The op 74? I thought op 11 was more iconic
@@kwkarlwang nah I mean in the description it said that his late preludes were iconic - so he kust don't care bout the others😂
@Tyler Gerhardt in the description Ashish meantions other great preludes and he said scirabins late preludes, so he's saying the early one aren't that great.
@@powergaming3429 no I think that both sets are great, perhaps Ashish intended that the op.74 are more iconic since they're more original and written in Scriabin's "official" style if you know what I mean
47:19 reminiscent of scarbo and le gibet.
Wonderful
Thank you so much for this.
One rezon I am listening this is my odsłuch of music literature. This is huge hłam.
Debussy is like the rain.
Whats the easiest prelude ???? ( mu english is too Bad)
Des Pas sur la Neige, and La Fille aux Cheveux de lin are the easiest, although Des Pas requires very good tonal control to sound interesting. La Fille is usually the first prelude taught. Also Danseuses de Delphes is fairly easy.
If I were going to rank Book I in order from easiest -> hardest it would go 8, 6, 1, 10, 4, 2, 12, 9, 3, 11, 5, 7. La Cathedrale gets harder if you have small hands, and seriously tests your pedalling, but it's technically not so difficult. West Wind is the hardest of the set by a *lot*.
Book II would go 5, 10, 9, 2, 6, 1, 3, 7, 8, 11, 4, 12, and again, Fireworks is the hardest. Supposed to be the hardest prelude in the set but I think West Wind is hardest. La Fille and Des Pas are easier than anything in book 2.
Interestingly enough, the doubled bass line at 1:12:46 sounds like god save the queen.
it's a direct quotation of god save the queen. Prelude #9 is titled "Hommage à S. Pickwick Esq. P.P.M.P.C" referencing the titular character of Charles Dickens’ The Pickwick Papers so Debussy is bringing in a bunch of "English" associations and vibes
My score for La Cathedrale has only the contra-C for the big tolling bell-sound during the climax, not a C octave. I wonder which is correct? I've heard both (with just the lowest C and with octaves) in various recordings.
No c octave. Mine and all other sheets I have seen only the one c

Paavali Jumppanen is great! And so is Debussy!

Is the sheet music archive still a thing? Haven't thought of that site in forever.

If only Untitled Goose Game had more levels
What do you mean?
Not Jumppanen's best work.
Agreed -- even at a basic level, I'm hearing a lot of misread notes and so on
