Prokofiev, Piano Concerto No. 3 - MOV 3 (Martha Argerich, 2001)

[curlysue27]

this is less subtle a version than her usual recordings.

[konigstephan]

This concerto belongs to Martha all the way!!

Curiously, I've noticed that her 'big paw' technique is quite similar to Bruno Leonardo Gelber's and Anna-Marie Globenski's, one of my teachers at University. And they all had Bruno Seidhofer for teacher in Vienna. I wish I could hear something by this Master someday...

the orchestra and piano are incredibly out of sync at time. i don't know whose fault this is, but for sure there is a disconnect there. definitely one of the possible reasons she is feeling peeved.

[EmmJupiter]

@mmoynan "the orchestra and piano are incredibly out of sync" No, they're not.

[ACKKstudio]

@mmoynan no, look at the score.

[sumimimi0]

this should be fastest version,, i mean starting from 7:20, i think faster than, you should see this video and see why martha argerich is best in the wolrd, that video

大好きな曲ですが、アルゲリッチさんの演奏は初めて聴きました。

さすがに素晴らしい出来ですね。

デュトアさんの指揮ももちろん！



[WOWdato]

and orchestra is good also!

[willenak]

this woman is a living legend....

[ephender1979]

6:26 she seems pretty into this performance to me

[ghawk2005]

i read in a review that martha was not happy about the NHK orchestra that was accompanying her. don't remember exactly why but she wasn't impressed. that could have something to do with it

[SebaRasta]

@ghawk2005 The orchestra sounded slightly out of tempo. Maybe for us it's irrelevand and we have to listen carefully to notice that, but for someone like Argerich who's been playing this for years, that's not acceptable and I'm sure that annoyed her.

[violench]

This is extraordinary play but she doesn't seem to be happy. Just before the beginning of this movement, she said to the conductor Dutoit that "It doesn't work at all, i don't know why, huh?" But BRAVA Martha, your play was unbelievable like always.

[Sinneo91]

Damn, she seems pissed at the end of this, like she just wants to get off stage. I don't think she was too happy about something, maybe the conductor. She makes that awful face at 9:30 as well!

[SDCALL1]

@Sinneo91 That face is gorgeous! What I read into that was that she didn't feel happy with her performance, but is acknowledging and showing gratitude for the support and warm reaction given by the audience...

[gergsar]

@Sinneo91 the conductor is her ex-husband...

[yohbyo]

@gergsar lawl

[Sinneo91]

@gergsar

That explains it..

[laqin007]

Did the string break at 8:27-8:28?!?!

[Sinneo91]

No, that's the bow of a violin hitting the strings.

[meneltar]

@laqin007 it breaks at 8:22 !

[eloisacascio]

ma quante registrazioni ci sono di questo concerto fatto dalla argerich su youtube??ah ah.bello.

[stomachpunch]

she seems effortless-amazing performance-a wonderful concerto for the ages-

[Ellinidara]

Oh yes;**** I was there:))))))))))))

[BachFong11]

Lol what is she saying? LOL that is so funny.

[vadimrusmov85]

She seems to be saying "ça ne va pas du tout, je ne sais pas pourquoi" (french). In English: "it's not fine at all, I don't know why". So apparently she's not satisfied!

[Snufkin999]

wow, you're right, great lip reading skills! She does seem a little distant in this performance. But of course that's only natural, you can't be always inspired.

[mmoynan]

@vadimrusmov85 Jeeez!  Crazy lip reading skills... you're right!
