13 of Claude Debussy's greatest solo piano pieces performed by Artem Tenkeli and accompanied with AI art.

all are great, but Clair de lune is by far the best for me. I love to play it.
@@tomaszczapiewski3359 Same opinion here, but unfortunately I don't play piano or any instrument except bugle (which isn't a real one). But maybe for the end of my happy days I would learn piano and those lovely songs !
@@camisfr wish you good luck and all the best :) at least you have a great taste in music :) PS: they are not songs, but pieces ;) have a nice evening.
I love Clair de Lune. I have to say it's my favorite, not just of DeBussy's, but maybe of all piano pieces.
❤
I am from a family of humble means. In the middle 1960's my parents found a way for me to have piano lessons from a beautiful lady who had studied at the Sorbonne. This was the first piece she introduced me to in my first year. She would give my lesson and then would play a piece, sitting in huge antique wicker chairs with floral chintz pillows, the sun shining through the organza sheer draperies of the many windows of her solarium/studio. I loved Miss Goldie Shiflet and rhank God for the sacrifices my parents made to give me that love of a culture unlike that of where I originated.
Man, I dream about that kind of scenario. That would be perfect. Unfortunately, the world is too cruel these days, and lacks that kind of quality.
I enjoyed reading this. ❤
... and thank you în turn for sharing the intricacies of this your cultural/ spiritual moment of initiation. In ways oftentimes unbeknownst to us, to a vast majority of us, these things change us to the core, open us up to fascinating as surprising perceptions and understandings of life as it surrounds us. And in cases such as own one, that i know, the realization of it came so unbelievably late in life, I'll have to say... Enjoy the blessings, dare I wish you.
I teared up reading your comment
Beautiful comment! My mother's dear sister, my Aunt Ky - for many years, paid for my seat in the audience for our local symphony productions. We attended together. Starting in my late 30's for about 15 years, I gained a knowledge of symphony music. What an amazing education that was for me and in mid life!
To anyone who's reading this, ITS GOING TO BE OK. I pray that whatever is hurting you or whatever you are constantly stressing about gets better. May the dark thoughts, and the over thinking, and the doubt exit your mind right now and may clarity and understand replace confusion. I declare peace and calmness to fill your life.💯💯❤❤
Clair de Lune takes me back to Normandy in the 50s & early 60s when I was was young, walking back along a country road late at night with my Grandparents, from a visit to my family in the next village, the moon was our guiding light. Such happy memories. Such a sublime piece
Wow, thats quite a testimony, to me Aznavour’s La boheme takes me back to the 40’s in Belgium and France during the war…. The funny thing is that nor the song exists that time nor I was there…..past lives reminisce?
I have just listened to La Boheme by Charles Aznavour on KZhead, I must confess that I hadn't heard it for many years. Thank you for mentioning it in your reply, I can see how it would have taken you back to past times. Wonderful song. @@iuwt10
@@iuwt10 . Same. The song takes me back to a peaceful evening in Gettysburg right after the civil war. Nothing like nostalgia.
I don't doubt you were there....time is so fleeting....life is brief.
@poigmhahon I can verify he was there at Gettysburg, as I was also. But, only because the delorian took a wrong turn. Doc Brown accidentally landed on some guy, Robert E. Lee, causing him to retreat with his army... Anyways, it was probably not important...
I love Debussy
Then you like France, my beloved country, Love and blessings to you :)
But always finish on Debussy. Never finish on the Bach!
@@nikaproust nah, just debussy 😂
Clair de lune hits me right in the Debussy every time.

I cant tell if this is a joke or not.

@@fragrenade6088 i have no idea what you are talking about. all i know is that we need to cherish the joy debussy gives
My brother in law died today and this beautiful music is a balm for my grieving heart....
So sorry for your loss. His soul will live forever. Love from Los Angeles
So sorry for your loss. May all the lovely memories of him bring your family comfort.
He is with God , and i hope you will stay strong . ❤
sorry for your loss.

I started taking piano lessons when I was eight. Somehow, when I was about 10, I heard Clair de Lune, maybe on TV. It was the most beautiful thing I'd ever heard, and it was completely unlike anything I'd ever heard. I went to my piano teacher and told her I wanted to learn it. She probably thought I was crazy, but she indulged me. Of course, I had no idea what I was doing and not being a prodigy, i couldn't do it justice. But it still gives me pleasure that I had enough discernment at least to pluck it out from all the other music I was hearing and that I was the kind of kid who could be touched by it. Thanks for posting this compilation. I listen to it every day.
That's awesome! Loved hearing your story, thanks for sharing and listening!
@@classicaloasis❤
I did the same thing. :)
"Somehow, when I was about 10, I heard Clair de Lune, maybe on TV. It was the most beautiful thing I'd ever heard, and it was completely unlike anything I'd ever heard." While reading this I had tears in my eyes. I feel completely the same.
That happened to me by chance coming across my aunt’s George Szell Cleveland Orchestra record of Beethoven Symphony #5 and maybe 6 too. I was 11 and bored. I lay down next to big speakers from the 70s. It was love at first note. I was like WHAT IS THIS! I still love those 2 symphonies above all others. This Debussy is the music of the heavens ☺️
Hoy caminando con mi perrito Mani, cruzamos el bosque y escuchando Debussy con auriculares ... la brisa en la cara ... las nuves moviendose en el cielo ... las hojas bailando con el viento .... y Debussy .... el azul del cielo ... los colores del bosque .... paz .... respirar .... estar .... ser .... sentir .... Debussy un puente que conecta con la belleza ..... gracias ... tanta belleza ... gracias ....
Clair de Lune: one of the most beautiful creations of man… ❤
Don't overthink it. Just enjoy timeless music of the masters.
Boia, I will overthink it because his name surprisingly did not age well. De Bussy. Hehehehehehe
Each piece by Debussy can be compared to an impressionist canvas of that period, the liquefied colors, the pens that fade like the chords, a sense of the infinite in another dimension that take us to a world of sounds and colors never seen where travel the soul and the mind.... thanks for the post!!!!
Yes these are the most perfect beautiful words to describe such an amazing emotional work of musical art 🖼️
He was such a great master of the piano, creating a sound so different from other composers. He made the piano sound like floating notes instead of it being a percussive instrument. A poet of the piano like Chopin was.
Indeed... Thank you for the depth and clarity of your thought ✨️
He defines melody at least for me.
impressionism- pointillism : )
❤❤@@ioanavlaicu5989
120 years old. Older than any man or woman who has ever lived. Timeless is exceptional. To withstand the test of time. There really is something miraculous in that I don't believe will ever be achieved again. It reminds me of Vanilla sky. I'm sure many people believe they connect with it, cheer and pronounce ridiculous theories or ideas. Beauty, that lasts 120 years in my opinion, cannot be drawn in negativity. It's remarkable.
I love Debussy's music. I want him to accompany me to my final resting place. His music is divine.
I love Debussy's music more than I could ever like Debenis's music.
Yes, please play Clair de Lune when I die.
I just added to my "When the Time Comes" file ❤
@@emh630Me too
Keep listening for the rest of your life and your wish shall come true.
What I think about this gentleman is that he always seems to show up at the perfect time right when needed and fills the void of where loneliness would be while communicating effectively through it all. This music makes me not worry about a good nights rest or the end of things because it is so gentle, serene, and calming, euphoric and blissful, peaceful; Truly this is a masterpiece.
Well said 👏👏 I actually first heard this from a BTS mv I thought wow what is that melody & who composed this beautiful piece of music.. A neighbour of mine said would you like to come down and help me with the horses one day, I of course with no hesitation said yes! As we walked down to the stables where her horse was she was telling me all about her horse and she said he a lovley horse well mannered, a gentleman.. but she said it’s only quirk is, if that’s what you’d like to call it is.. it hates being alone. More than other horses. so she puts Debussy on to calm him down before she leaves..and it soothes him every time…I also noticed the song while she was playing it in the stable and I felt safe despite not knowing this women for long. I knew I found a person to trust the universe has ways of communicating in fascinating ways. From that moment on I knew I felt at home. His music always finds you in times of darkness & loneliness. 🐴🌌🎶🎹 R.I.P. Thank-you for sharing this wonderful gift with the 🌍
I weep at the beauty of this music especially Clair de lune....it captures the joy and sadness of this life.
I love De Bussy
Clair de lune is my favorite song of all time. I could listen to it continuously on a loop. What a master deBusey is to have written it.
Me too
Debussy's piano compositions are glorious and sublime 🎹❤💝🥰❤
Whenever I listen to Debussy’s music, my soul is filled with an ineffable joy and impression and peace of mind🎑
I feel a sense of longing. A deep sadness. Like I am staring into the moon. Searching for someone I know

Clair de lune being the most impactful classical piece I ever heard always bring me into a deep emotional and meditative state.
I will not go gently into the dark night. But I will go very gently into Debussy's moonlit night.
Why are people slagging him off and making jokes ?

I used to listen to classical music from a local radio station when I was a kid, I have always loved Debussy. And much later his music was put with a Movie called Frankie and Johnny. I like it when classical beauty is put with movies. This helps keep this music alive with each generation.
Well said; I absolutely agree.
It seems the younger generation doesn’t have a taste for it. My father inspired me to listen to it. It’s heartfelt and I love listening to it in memory of him and I love it. This piece makes me very happy like when times were simpler and life was not so busy in the world. My dad was born the year of the Great Depression 1929-2012. How I miss him and sharing our love of classical music
@valeriedemarco6446 ....sweet, sweet story❤😊
Debussy’s music is ephemeral and very romantic. I heard the music Clair de lune in the movie “ Ocean’s eleven.” and loved very much but didn’t know who is a composer. One time I heard it on radio classic channel and learned that Debussy is a composer, I am playing piano and when I was learning in musical school long time ago I was playing Debussy. Now I am learning to play Clair de Lune, almost done , the last two pages remains to play fluently.
Want to learn it as well although have never played the piano
The best to you, 🎉 you will be wonderful .🎉😊
this music is what paradise is made of. you want to listen in eternity. never ending but you can´t.
This debussy got me actin' unwise.

All the light we can’t see
Music of the angels brought to Earth.

What a lovely way to start the morning. Thank you for uploading.
I’m at peace. Thank you
Impressionism is impressionism, unearthly music !!!
Claude Debussy and Frederic Chopin will always be my two favorite classical musicians. I love them both, and I am convinced that they are in heaven resting peacefully with the King of Kings and Lord of Lords, Jesus Christ our Lord and savior. I listen to both of them every day at work and at night to put me to deep meditation and sleep.
As a wise man once said: "Always start with Debussy and finish on the Bach"
lmao bro
Haha😂
A very wise man indeed 😊
Did he say why? Surely it's a matter of choice.
Never forget to Handel it correctly and go Chopin after
Pictures painted with music!
Debussy hit different fr 😊
As slang changes thank goodness Debussy stays the same
Clair de lune made me cry😢
Perfection. Music heals my soul.
Normally I dislike classical piano pieces. But Debussy had a beautiful way to weave the notes together. I'll never forget hearing Clair de Lune for the first time in Ocean's 11 when I was a kid. Such a relaxing piece.
Well this has to change then. If you like this, it means that your ear is at least sensible to some degree to classical sonorities. You just need some good pieces easy to like to get started. Try Brahms intermezzo op 118 no2, or Pletnev arrangement of Pas de deux from the nutcracker suit. I'm sure you'll like them !
Clair de lune at the very beginning is mesmerizing
Je to krásné, melancholické, nabádající k myšlení na klidné podivno. No jo, byl dobrej, chlapec, klavírní skřítek jej stále doprovází. Na věčné pouti černobílými klávesami.
I love the piano music of Debussy its touching your hearth deeply.❤❤❤
I have a very deep, distant memory of this song, and am not sure why. It touches my soul. Every time I hear it, I get chills, feel a deep sadness and am brought to tears. So beautiful and moving...
なんど聞いても、毎回ドヴィシーの世界に引きずりこまれる音楽ですね！こんな幸せな音楽を開けるなんて、なんていう幸せでしょう!

Woww...musical loveliness that leaves you breathless
Pablo Almiron plays Debussy like a God❤
Debussy has long been a favorite of mine . Classical music is just so much better than modern “ anything “ . My mother introduced me to Classical music when I was young, I just caught on quick . But also it was played in the dance studio where she took ballet classes. I still love it !
I just love Claire de lune. So beautiful and refreshing. My favorite. Many thanks for sharing this beautiful and wonderful music with all of us.
Estoy escuchando las piezas de Debussy en estas zonas verdes; con bellos árboles y bosques; zonas frías y lluviosas de la patagonia chilena 🇨🇱. ¡Cuánto apacigua la música de este compositor; es ensueño perfecto! La música de Debussy es beldad. Gracias por compartir.
Que maravilha ouvir a encantadora música de Debussy nestas paisagens deslumbrantes , aqui nas paisagens do Paraná também nos encantamos com o genial Debussy,mas também amamos a querida Violeta, Gracias a lá Vida.
OUI, La musique de Debussy est beauté........................................ Plus j'avance en age et plus je découvre la joie simple et la sérénité de cette musique de Debussy.
Well said!
Welcome!! Thank you! Always beautiful, always adorable. Applause and congratulations dear friends.
What a lovely Sunday morning I've had. Claude Debussy is the pleasant joy that brought it all together, so beautiful, so soothing, peaceful. I discovered Debussy in a different kind of way. You may remember that Jack Horkheimer ("Keep Looking Up") called on Debussy and his Arabesque No. 1 to color his brief yet wonderful show on astronomy. I loved the music immediately. I did not know it's origin. I found out and discovered another wonderful universe of pleasure. Thanks Jack. God Bless Claude...
Clair de Lune is is my favorite with its magical and wonderful tunes❤❤❤
When studying, always finish with Debussy

Artem Tenkelis take on claire du lune is the best I've ever heard yet. I really enjoyed it, thanks.
Agreed! Glad you enjoyed it!
Yes, the best version I have heard of Claire de Lune, this is to me how it should sound....
I feel like I am in another dimension listening his musical scores
Brings me so much joy to hear this! I’ve been enjoying this movement since I was fourteen years old! I was born way too early!
No, you weren't -- this is music for the ages.
I'm confused. Born too early for music composed over 100 years ago?
Debussy's music is like Monet's paintings
Claude Debussy pour moi genial, La Mer, encore Plus.
Arabesques No.1 gets me every time
My favourite piece is La fille aux cheveux de lin (the girl with linen hair) - it is so beautiful.
This reminds me of when I was little listening to my Great Grandpa playing his piano in the other room.
Debussy had his God-given gift he shared to every soul; timeless & unbound thru generations. Peace & love til the last drop of the note.
divine
I always cry when I listen to "Clair de lune" and I just don't know why

"I always cry when I listen to "Clair de lune" and I just don't know why". Perhaps because it touches your soul AND heart deeply. The same with me.

Thank you so much for listening/watching!
Clair De Lune. Is what I will hear as the spark of life leaves my body.
His musical interpretation of Clair de Lune is flawless. It would be impossible for me to tell you what that means to me. I believe this is exactly how Debussy heard it in his head when he composed it, and I am sometimes shocked by how wrong some performers/conductors get it. Well done, and thank you.
How can one put adds on that beauty ... what a shame
