One recalls his Images, coupled with Gabriel Dupont\u2019s La Maison dans les dunes (Artalinna, Diapason d\u2019Or, see issue 672), whose suggestive power also permeates this new program. A shimmering world emerges in this interpretation, uniting clarity and richness of sound, shaped by an artist who knows how to translate emotions into music and weave a fascinating dialogue between the works. The precision of articulation and timbre impresses\u2014from the delicacy of Takemitsu\u2019s Rain Tree Sketch II to the roaring waves of Dupont\u2019s La Maison dans les dunes. Eckardstein\u2019s Debussy is more sensual than the flawless Debussy of Seong-Jin Cho (DG, 2017) or the airy lightness of Javier Perianes (HM, 2018), yet still retains a certain elegance. His playing avoids the dark hallucination of Daniil Trifonov in Scriabin\u2019s Sonata No. 9, opting instead for a phrasing structure with pearl-like timbres.<\/em> In order to view the dicography please click here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n \n <\/div>\n \n\n Repertoire<\/h2>\n \n
