Martha Argerich Plays Schumann Piano Concerto in A minor / Liszt Funerailles / Ravel Jeux d'Eau (1976) [Repost]

Genre: Classical

In 1976, Miss Argerich was in the studios of the CBC Montreal network where she performed the Schumann Piano Concerto, Liszt’s Funérailles and Ravel’s Jeux d’eau. The program preserved what is believed to be the only concerto performance by the pianist that has been captured on video. The concerto receives a patrician performance with all the tonal beauty one would expect from this remarkable artist. The Ravel also benefits from her gorgeous tonal palette and evenness of touch. It is in the Liszt that one experiences the staggering virtuosity that is the other element of Argerich’s art. The left-hand octave passages in Funérailles are played with such awesome speed that the video cameras could barely capture the movement of the hand. As exhilarating to watch as to hear, Argerich on television is a major addition to the recorded work of one of the foremost talents of our day.

The phenomenally gifted pianist Martha Argerich has elicited near-fanatical devotion from her public as well as a rare consensus among critics who have exhausted a vocabulary of superlatives in describing her art. In 1977 Miss Argerich visited the studios of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation's French network in Montreal for a rare television appearance, performing the Schumann Piano Concerto and works for solo piano. Video Artists International is proud to present his, the only available video documentation of Martha Argerich in a concerto performance. This telecast amply demonstrates the qualities that led Mstislav Rostropovich in a New York Times interview to praise Argerich as "a pianist with no limits at all, none whatsoever."
