"this release is packed with remarkable insights that will entrance connoisseurs of the Études and win them many new admirers."
(BBC)

"Rogé has little time for the common perception of Debussy as an "impressionist" composer, all pastel shades and dewy outlines. His playing is bold, muscular when it needs to be, and above all concerned at all times with formal and textural clarity...he is a sure guide to the musical worlds the Études inhabit, and to the moments when they transcend their technical function"
(The Guardian)

"As with the other discs in this complete Debussy survey, Rogé draws some lovely sounds from the piano"
(BBC Music)

"Rogé brings to every piece a refined sensibility, his pacing, colouring and voicing beautifully judged."
(The Sunday Times)

Pascal Rogé has established a reputation as the world's foremost interpreter of the French piano repertoire.

His recordings of the music of Erik Satie are unsurpassed after years in the catalogue, and his series for ONYX continues with a 4th volume featuring the 12 Études, among the composer's masterpieces.

Gramophone said of Rogé's recording of the Preludes: 'this disc of the complete Debussy Preludes has all his improvisatory warmth and charm, qualities that can take you to the very heart of the composer's evanescent world'.
