Description

|
|
|
Speaking of a particularly challenging piece he was about to play on her birthday, a WQXR announcer once mused, "Martha Augerich eats music like this for breakfast." These 2002–2010 performances were recorded at the festival in Lugano, where she performs each year alongside young artists in the Martha Argerich Project. Among this set's selections are Beethoven's Concertos Nos. 1 and 2, Poulenc's Concerto for Two Pianos and Orchestra in D Minor, Mozart's Concerto for Three Pianos and Orchestra No. 7 in F, K. 242 ("Lodron"); Schumann's Concerto in A Minor, Op. 54; Prokofiev's Concertos Nos. 1 and 3; Liszt's Concerto No. 1 in E-flat; Bartók's Concerto No. 3; Schubert's Divertissement ŕ l'hongroise in G Minor, D. 818; Brahms' Liebeslieder-Walzer, Op. 52; Stravinsky's Les Noces; and his Scaramouche, a Suite for Two Pianos. "Argerich operates on a loftily instinctive level of musicianship where spontaneity rather than calculation is the order of the day."—Musical America
