the quality of this recording is incredible for its time.

[TheophilusBoone]

I've never heard anything more beautiful than this.

I was just a twenty-one year old, dumb-ass senior in college when she did this performance. If someone had asked me then if I knew who Martha Argerich was I would probably have inquired as to which sorority was she in. I’m a lot better now though, lol. This lady is a stone cold miracle. That she is still playing at this level at the age of eighty-three is mind boggling. She’s also one of the most beautiful women I’ve ever seen.

Martha Agerich is a fabulous pianist with so much passion and beauty in her piano playing!

How lucky are we to be able to time travel and witness this amazing concert in its entirety, played by her!!!

I was a little boy of 10 when I heard Martha Argerich's first record on my father's Dual stereo equipment on a on a rainy Sunday.
I can also remember that concert.

After the first note, I was madly in love! It was as if I suddenly glimpsed heaven. 
A few days later, one of my aunts gave me some recordings of her, because she could no longer stand by and watch this boy in love suffer. I still love her, Martha, my heart!

Their brains are located in their hands. That's how I describe perfect musicians!

「若き日のアルゲリッチはこんなに凄いピアニストだった。」





今までに聴いた事の無い演奏！
テンポもかなり早いパート遅いパートと「私はこれよ..., 」と言わんばかりの演奏に圧倒されました。

彼女の凄さが改めて再確認できました。

[kreios]

i actually have never heared or can imagine a better version of choppin. She plays it so emotional like nobody else.

[huggybear]

Simply the best musician I've ever seen or heard on YouTube. She's mesmeric, and so utterly brilliant.

[larryprimeau]

right up there with the greatest piano concertos.

Many thanks for sharing this truly wonderful recording of the most brilliant performance!! Most passionate and dramatic, Martha Argerich.

How wonderful to be able to see and hear Martha Argerich from so long ago! Argerich and Rubinstein…two of the finest interpreters of Chopin’s musical genius!❤️

[josarth]

I think could Chopin thought that his music come to be this big sucess, hundreds years, and still being played in all over the world? His music will never die. He lives throught his music.

[erika]

I'm only 15 minutes into this concerto, but it feels as though hours have gone by, so dense and full is the music. Martha's playing has had me on the verge of tears a number of times so far ...

❤AAAARRRRGGGHHHH!!!! My first time seeing this video!! My ears may never walk again….🥰🥰🥰 Blown away…..

[johnpeschke]

i think Chopin wrote this concerto for Martha...i've heard others play it under many conductors with different orchestras but she gives us a jewel every time.
