A recording by Marc-André Hamelin is noted for its "intriguing interpretive vision". Ī recording by Noriko Ogawa won the Editor's Choice of Gramophone and is noted favorably by Stephen Walsh in BBC Radio 3's Building a Library series. The French musical critic Jean Roy wrote of Claudio Arrau's 1979 recording ( Diapason d'Or n° 266 & 334) as being "unrivalled". Many famous pianists of the 20th century have recorded Debussy's Images, such as Walter Gieseking and Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli.
