  SatieMart: Armenguad Reviews
Armengaud is a clean player, voicing these pieces with lapidary care and consistently good pacing.
But Armengaud's responses inevitably vary, and it must be said that he is sensitive in the six Nocturnes in a way that he is not with the Gymnopédies, Gnossiennes, and Sarabandes, which are so often nagging and relentless in pulse.
Dominique Merlet and Jean-Pierre Armengaud have taken the dreamy approach to this repertoire to a new extreme, at least as far as tempos are concerned.

Armengaud is a participant in a project known as GIMPS (Great Internet Prime Search).
Armengaud found it by using Woltman's software implementing the Lucas-Lehmer test for primes and working together with hundreds of volunteers via the Internet.
In the final step, it took him 88 hours on a 90-megahertz Pentium personal computer to prove his number to be a prime.

In Volume 3 of Jean-Pierre Armengaud's complete Debussy piano music cycle, the multi-movement Suite Bergamasque and Children's Corner bracket a generous 40-minute selection of short pieces.
The Suite's outer movements are as firm and direct as can be, but the pianist's logy treatment of Clair de lune unduly emphasizes the dark side of the moon.
Next to the fluid, effervescent recordings of the Tarantelle in my collection (including Walter Gieseking, Claudio Arrau, Martin Jones, Jean-Yves Thibaudet, and Gordon Fergus-Thompson), Armengaud is earthbound and timid, yet he proves stronger and more sustained in the lyrical Reverie and Nocturne.
