does anyone know when this concert was?

Now I've listened to many other interpretations, including hers, but THIS special one is closest to perfection. I think Schumann really likes her :)

...the tigress sporting that grey mane and so appearing tamed, but that is only a tactical trick...no, she is not tamed...

[fredericfranc]

...the sequences delivered with her patented savage harshness are very easily the most impressive, because she can shade them into the more gentle stuff so effectively, nobody else can do it like that, that is why she is so unique...she is savage like nobody else can manage to be, and yet "she is not", that is why she is our one and only, who can follow her?...ever?...

@fredericfranc very astute observations, totally true, agree 100%!!!

[bernard1422]

Argerich is always in search of the mystical pleroma, the gnostic lightstream to enhance her interpretation of whatever she's performing. Once more she's closer to her goal.
