Debussy vs. Debussy
Is bigger, better? Warner goes wildly complete with its 33-disc collection of all of Debussy's works and plenty that are only partly by him. This makes it a musicologist's moist dream. DG [19 + 3 CDs + 1 DVD] banks on proven performers, though there are some high-profile surprises, especially since the new set differs very substantially from the 17-disc "150th Anniversary" Debussy Edition from a few years back. I compared the two sets in a reasonably substantial review over on Forbes and I'm happy for every reader and (less gratifying but still as effective) for every click!
