  • The orchestra and conductor are very good. Martha as always is superb.

  • Looking at a small orchestra typical in the Haydn-Mozart Era.

  • maravilha! a orquestra e as duas criaturas fantásticas, regente-pianista e pianista!!

    FANTÁSTICO!!!

  • Very good performance but beethoven can play it better i know this by i was there.beethoven's performance is a master piece. so good job Martha Argerich

  • If only Argerich had played slower and with more restraint, she would have sounded much better. And give her Berlin Philharmonic and a Steinway grand, she will sparkle! Great performance! Argerich also cannot do Mozart as well as Mitsuko Uchida. I look to Mitsuko Uchida or Gulda for Mozart. Hope I am not nitpicking! I've pointed out Argerich's weaknesses! Uh Oh!

  • Martha Argerich, to me, is the greatest of the living pianist. I adore her recordings. But for Beethoven concertos, i will look to Kempff and Berlin Philharmonic under Ferdinand Leitner. It may not be the best recording, but I like Kempff better than Argerich in Beethoven 2. I prefer Kempff slower tempi, more nuanced details emerge from his playing, and it allows me to catch my breath with Kempff.

  • these players don't ever look at their conductor .the music is always new to these people no matter how many rehearsaks!

  • she makes this dumpy Yamaha sound like a real piano

  • nooo, don't do that! It may hear simple, but it has enough difficulties. Try the 2nd of Beethoven or the A major of Mozart (not n.23!)

  • Great playing by Marta and the orchestra!
