"Jean-Efflam Bavouzet has a wonderfully light touch, imbuing ‘Les collines d’Ancapri’ with a skittish exuberance, or creating delicate wisps of mist in ‘Brouillards’ evoking Debussy’s advice to forget that the piano has hammers." (BBC Music Magazine)

Debussy: Les soirs illuminés par l'ardeur du charbon, album leaf for piano
"Given the stunning excellence of his Ravel and Liszt releases [not on Chandos], it's no surprise that Bavouzet commands all the shading, nuance and timbral sensitivity one expects in Debussy, together with virtuoso flair and characterful spontaneity that adds welcome backbone to the composer's 'hammerless' aesthetic..."
Gramophone
"Jean-Efflam Bavouzet has a wonderfully light touch, imbuing 'Les collines d'Ancapri' with a skittish exuberance, or creating delicate wisps of mist in 'Brouillards' evoking Debussy's advice to forget that the piano has hammers."
BBC Music Magazine
"There is an emotional directness about Bavouzet's Debussy that is reminiscent of the great Samson Francois, tempered by a palette of glowing autumnal colours..."
