He was one of the most important figures in music at the turn of the 20th century; his music represents the transition from late-romantic to 20th century classical.
Debussy's most dramatic contribution to music history was his disregard for traditional chord structures and tonality. He is one of the most important exponents of the whole tone scale in classical music history. His compositions flowed without a strict sense of metre or rhythm, and are considered the pioneering works of the Impressionist genre of classical music, named in comparison with the visual arts movement.
Debussy's impact was far reaching. His free use of harmony, which often altogether disregarded the concepts of tertian harmony, has been cited as an influence on the rise of Jazz music later in the 20th century.

Outstanding! Debussy has created the ultimate challenge for the pianist, experimenting with every possible sound. As always Seong-Jin Cho is more than equal to the task. With his colorful playing we can enjoy all that this mythical island holds: love, beauty, passion, inspiration, excitement...and of course, joy. What an unforgettable experience!
Im Abendrot
Agreed!

It was truly gratifying to hear the audience's wildly enthusiastic response to Cho's playing as this is a marvelous performance of a treacherously difficult piece. Bravo!
Sam Reeve
The ending of this piece is absolutely magnificent, the sheer joy, pride and pomp with which it finishes is so powerful and fulfilling - it feels like you're on top of the world.
Hieronymus Posh
An ecstatic blinding light of sonority. If he'd written nothing else Debussy would be a legend just for the last 40 bars of this piece.

This is absolutely fantastic. The mood of this piece is captured so beautifully. You can actually feel the rhythm of the heart when it is experiencing the joy and excitement of love.

음 하나하나를 제대로 표현하고 안 놓치려 하는 게 보여서 나도 모르게 입이 벌어졌다.
게다가 또 표정 덕에 (ㅋㅋ) 개인적으로 진짜 어딘가 미지의 장소에 도착해서 이리저리 둘러보며 한껏 감탄하는 느낌이 났음.
이제 이런 멋진 연주를 집안에 앉아서 들을 수 있다니 시대가 좋아지긴 좋아졌구나.

네~ 맞아요^^ 표정덕에도... 그치만 그건 조성진의 내면에 있는 것들이 자연스럽게 뿜어져 나오는 것이겠죠

Une de mes pièces préférées de Debussy avec cette incroyable interprétation mettant l’ accent sur les différents moments presque jazzy et dont la fin dépasse toutes les attentes🎇this time i write in French🎼
John Baker
Totally striking! He might play better than Debussy himself would have ecpected.
