Finale: Alla breve 26:43 Martha Argerich, piano Riccardo Chailly, conductor Radio-Symphonie-Orchester Berlin “Martha Argerich is an Argentine pianist known for her recordings and performances of chamber music, particularly of works by Olivier Messiaen, Sergey Prokofiev, and Sergey Rachmaninoff. A prodigy, Argerich was performing professionally by age eight. In 1955 she went to Europe, where her teachers included Friedrich Gulda and Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli. She won two prestigious competitions in 1957 at age 16: the Geneva International Music Competition and the Ferruccio Busoni International Piano Competition. In 1965 she won the Chopin Piano Competition in Warsaw. The next year she made her debut in the United States in the Great Performers series at Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts in New York City. Her exceptionally brilliant technique, emotional depth, and élan won her an enthusiastic international following. She performed around the world and dedicated most of her career to collaborative chamber music, notably with Latvian violinist Gidon Kremer, with whom she produced a number of award-winning recordings. Other musicians with whom she performed and recorded include pianists Alexandre Rabinovitch and Nelson Freire and cellists Mstislav Rostropovich and Mischa Maisky. Argerich was the recipient of many honours and prizes, including three Grammy Awards (1999 and 2005 [best instrumental soloist performance (with orchestra)] and 2004 [best chamber music performance]). In 2005 she received the Japan Art Association’s Praemium Imperiale prize for music and the Order of the Rising Sun from the Japanese government. Beginning in 1999 a piano competition in her name was held annually in Buenos Aires, and from 2001 she directed a music festival in her name, also in Buenos Aires. In 2016 she received a Kennedy Center Honor, an American award that celebrates the arts.“ Remastered By: Wayne Yang, USA-Taiwan *I do not monetize off of this video or any video I post on YouTube.
