French pianist Jean-Yves Thibaudet leans deep into Debussy and Ravel, the men and their music, in a free-ranging discussion with Charlotte Wilson that touches on Impressionism, art, his study with Ravel student Lucette Descaves, life in Los Angeles, the Thibaudet scholarship at the Colborn School where he is resident and finally, the gloriously colorful Khachaturian piano concerto he is performing at Tanglewood on Saturday
