Reflections is Icelandic pianist Víkingur Ólafsson’s latest project, inspired by the critically acclaimed and chart-topping 2020 album Debussy – Rameau.
Engaging in visionary conversations with French masters Debussy and Rameau, Ólafsson and other pioneering artists of today take a selection of scores as their starting points for a set of varied and original contemporary reworks. The new tracks feature Texas-based duo Balmorhea, Helgi Jónsson and Hugar, among others. The reworks are combined with some of Ólafsson’s previously unreleased recordings of solo piano pieces by Debussy to create a dreamlike blend of past and present.
