When this amazing woman is in the mood such as she is here with the complete arsenal she has at her command everyone else can shut up shop and go home.
The first time I heard this version, I thought it was too fast. But now I find it very moving without all this sentimental pathos so often heard in this nocturne. After all Chopin asked to play the last section "agitato", and it's what we feel with Argerich.
Am breathless....and i didn't even really help out that much in her playing. Her slow tempo at 01:30 rivals Pogo, at 03:00 she rips a whole new zipper in the fabric, and 04:10 onward....inexpressible in words
i just video responded to this unsurpassable Argerich's rendition
