I love the sumptuousness, wildness, and deep poetry of Martinon's La Mer. It's absolutely gorgeous and the best interpretation I've ever heard.

David Hurwitz sent me here; how right he is about this incredibly good performance!

[@ColeThomas]

Me too

[@stephenkolarac5305]

Moi aussi.

Dave Hurwitz brought me here too! It's a superb performance.

I came from "Dave."

Comment ??? tellement jouissif purée. Les glissements en avant et en arrière du tempo me donnent par moment l'impression folle de flotter légèrement dans l'eau proche du rivage puis d'être happé par le courant ! J'apprécie beaucoup les timbres des instruments qui m'apparaissent bien différents, plus identifiables que ceux du Cleveland Orchestra par exemple. Quelle enregistrement aussi pouaa

[@MarcAndreLacas]

Quelle version incroyable!

[@PaulBrower-qr8hf]

A reminder of how much I loved this performance. 1970's, recording when in the pre-digital days when recording engineers didn't do funny stuff just because they had some technology easy to abuse.

[@jimsprinkle4633]

Nicest performance I’ve heard. A French conductor who totally relates to Debussy’s impressionism. National ethos does make a difference when it comes to best musical performances.

[@shin-i-chikozima]

This is truly the majestic, solemn and wild scenery of the Debussy‘s sea . The sea of Japan is nothing short of amazing From A corner of Tokyo of the Land of the Rising Sun🇯🇵

[@e.arruda7410]

Beautiful, with a graceful movement like the waves... and probably more historically informed than other conductors who like their Debussy slow and misty

[@brave1671]

Unsurpassed. Really stunning

[@antoniopapini7445]

inolvidable registro

[@photo161]

Wow,!!! ...an absolutely thrilling performance. Martinon was a great conductor, especially of the French masters, and is far too little well known.

[@Dr.RozMusic]

thank you so much for the post! One of the best here.

[@hank1519]

Beautiful! Thank you!

[@cgoroo]

this is a wonderful set of recordings by Jean Martinon that i look forward to uploading in the following week(s)

[@hank1519]

@@cgoroo That will be great!

[@mr-wx3lv]

I hear this is a benchmark recording of the work. I think you can't beat homegrown artists to capture the atmosphere of this most French of composers...

[@brkahn]

LA mer.

[@alexkije]

I have this on an ORTF transcription for radio airplay.

[@olivierdrouin2701]

Je ne sais pas si c est la prise de son , mais quelle douceur dans " Jeux de vagues " , d ordinaire si agressif ,!!

[@paulbrower]

I had this on vinyl before I sold off all my LP's before a move. I miss it even though I have since gotten CD performances by Munch, Reiner, and Ansermet. All great, but not Martinon, who got it even better.
