Frederic Chopin: 24 Preludes, Op. 28

Claude Debussy: Preludes, Book I

Claude Debussy: Preludes, Book II

"Thoughtful, poetic accounts, Mr. Kigawa’s Debussy is carefully shaded and texturally transparent. He knows how to make this music sparkle. He is equally adept at tapping Debussy’s sense of mystery." - The New York Times

"'Aimez-vous préludes?' (as the novel title didn’t quite go). Whether you do or don’t, feast on this recital from a superb pianist more commonly heard playing the newest of the new: first, Chopin’s 24 Preludes, Op. 28; second, Debussy’s Preludes, Book 1; third, well, Debussy’s Preludes, Book 2" - The New York Times

"The stalwart New York pianist, a tenacious performer of the most complex modern scores, takes a backward glance in his latest concert at Le Poisson Rouge, an expansive solo recital that offers Chopin’s Twenty-Four Preludes, Op. 28, and Debussy’s Preludes, Books I and II." - The New Yorker
