As in Impressionist paintings, Debussy uses colorful musical brush strokes to conjure images of his travels to the seaside at Cannes and the Mediterranean. The shimmering movement of the sea left him with deep inspiration, illustrated in this orchestral work of beauty.
On the program are Mendelssohn's Capriccio brillant, Paganini's Violin Concerto with violinist Benjamin Schmid, Mendelssohn's Concerto for Violin, Piano and String Orchestra with pianist Ariane Haering and Debussy's La Mer.
