Nowarezman Posted August 14, 2020 Author Share Posted August 14, 2020 Usually I don't care that much for guitar transcriptions of Debussy piano pieces. Debussy's style relies so much on the bell-like attack and long sustain of piano notes and the huge resonances of pianos in space, that guitars typically sound rather anemic covering his piano stuff. But this Bream/Williams arrangement works IHMO - they do a very good job of filling up the sonic space. Some credit to the recordist/engineer, too. nat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
