A true “reference recording”! Breathing new life into an exquisite first masterpiece fro Beethoven. Made listen to an old favorite in a new way. Bravo!
Thank you very much, Will Lang, according to her autography, she has had an experience as well. My left arm does not have feeling yet, but I willl keep working on rehabilitations!!!!
This is one of the best Martha Argerich that I’ve ever heard. A sprightly interpretation of light-hearted Beethoven. With this, she has truly proven that age is just a number. Martha Argerich the High Priestess of the Piano 🙏🏽🙏🏽. The Orchestral Accompaniment was also superb. The smaller orchestra seemed to give a degree of sensitivity to the performance. 🙏🏽
She is undoubtedly the genius of the Century, since her childhood. The sound engineer did a superb job to blend all sounds and create the atmosphere and sound stage. Thumb's up for him/her too.
@@jeanash9502 Good morning Jean. happy Christmas and a marvellous start for you in 2023. You can watch Martha Argerich and the Oxford Philarmonic Orchestra April 3, 2023 in Heilbronn, Germany (Baden Württemberg). Beethoven's Piano Concert 1 will be performed. I saw her first on TV in 1973, I was young, a bit foolish and more handsome than now. She performed Tchaikovsky , Symphonie 1, this was well known. I live near Cologne but I will take the 350 km long drive to Heilbronn. - best wishes to you -
Stefan You can make it. I was in the same situation. Always say what you feel. Do not care other’s comment. Being honest with yourself gives you the most spiritual power. Keep on.
I am most grateful indeed - thank you so much Utube for letting us, who cannot afford to pay for music, to be given these videos to see and hear such great artists. I Humbly thank you, from Canad.
Ahh...Brava Martha.. Bravo Beethoven. Martha shows her true genius at the piano! She plays with emotion, conciseness, and elegance. Simply magnificence! So happy I was able to find this musical gem.
Martha is genius, of course, but what really impresses is the vibrancy and clarity in the reduced orchestral forces. It actually sounds better than with full orchestra. Better balance. The acoustics are exquisite. I regret that I was in this hall and didn’t get to hear a concert. The conductor is a gem. How could any human being not be touched by the childish joy in his face? It’s like he is discovering the music for the first time. Delightful!
@@johnsunde4339 So True !....And This is Accentuated by The Fact That We Have A Very Young Beethoven Still Heavily Influenced By Mozart Making His First Excursion into the genre of piano concerti. Thus A Far Flung Cry From The Fully Evolved and Mature Beethoven At The Height Of His Powers Who By The Time of Composing His Great Emperor Concerto was now using the Very Same Piano As Merely An Exstension of the Orchestra in His Monumental Symphonic Development !!!.....
Yes! the acoustics are exquisite. Kudo's to the sound engineers that recorded this as well. I was blown out of my seat by the quality and brilliance of this recording and the sheer power of this ageless Martha Argerich. I like her third movement performance even better than Yuja Wang's.
Excellent observation! I have never heard such a fine polish on a piece that I personally find bright and youthful but somehow mediocre, boring. Well, this is truly inspirational! Bravo to the joyful conductor, bravo to Martha and bravo to the sound technicians! P.S: Gábor who? It's such a shame I've never heard before of this exceptional conductor! Nor about his famous Takács Quartett.
exceptionally graceful yet playful and coquette from Madame Argerich. Heartful condolences on the passing of her partner Nelson Freire, a master in his own right RIP
Martha is an unforgettable artist and player of the Mozart's and Beethoven's piano concertos.She lives in my heart forever❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤She is a giant and an unrepeatable artist ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I often read Martha's fan talking about "her still being" when refering her senior years recordings and performances. I find no ground for "still" here - regardless of the natural limits that age brings, here she's better than ever. And that's not "just"about musicality and insight - that here's just the perfect Beethoven 1. Even better than ever before.
Good point! She's a force of nature and a pure genius of the keyboard! Her senior years? Many young pianist can envy her the elan vital and fervour! She's a mature player, who knows perfectly well what she wants to convey to the public and how to do it by hitting the right keys!
Still simply means that unlike many skills and abilities including piano prowess that are commonly affected negatively by age, Martha's skill seems not only undiminished, but in some ways even improved, amazing!
Into her 8th decade, she has lost none of that nimble, magic, precise touch and speed. Incredible pianist. I am glad to see Beethoven in her repertoire, as I have not seen or heard her play him before. Wonderful.
Come to think of it, according to Wikipedia, Argerich gave her first public performance in 1949 at the age of 8 years, 70 years years before this performance. And what did she play? The Beethoven #1! That very performance can also be found on UA-cam.
After that, I felt like the audience who really didn't want to see Argerich go. Being here on UA-cam I had the priviledge of just clicking start and watching all over again!! Oh, her light clear touch, the precision, the vibration, the magic with that wizard, Gàbor conjuring joy into action and sound. Just watch the rapt look on the musicien's faces during the encores....
I first saw Martha Argerich perform at the Proms in the early 1960’s in London. Who knew she’d be as good as ever in her 80’s like in her 20’s. Clearly she’s having so much fun at the piano. Just look at her joyful expressions she occasionally imparts. Martha has been my favorite pianist of all time.
Not only are all the artist's involved very good but the video camera work showing all the sections was done beautifully. Great sound quality is very evident as well. Martha and Gabor were just outstanding, their vibrant and melodious style give this performance a true elegance. The 3rd movement is a knock out highlighting Martha's virtuosity.
without the orchestra, the conductor and Martha plus the audience in the hall at that time this miracle had never occur. Thanks for sharing this once-in-a-lifetime performance that might disappear
Beethoven: “Piano Concerto N.º1, in C major, Op. 15” 01:00 __ I. Allegro con brio 15:09 __ II. Largo 26:22 __ III. Rondo. Allegro scherzando encores: 38:38 __ Sacarlatti: “Sonata K141” 44:14 __ Bach: “Gavotte”
That struck me too! Just breathtakingly beautiful. The Communication between pianist and the separate 'voices' in the Orchestra is fantastic throughout all three movements actually - chamber music communication!
Martha Argerich is giving a brilliant performance ... pure MAGIC !!! The orchestra and conductor, Gábor Takács-Nagy are vibrant and ... simply outstanding. BRAVO & Thank you !!!
This memorable concert, Ludwig 250 years, Martha astonishing as ever, the music in a cold night... . It allow us to forget for a while the cloudy days we are living and move to a place where art rules - not tyranny or pain. Thank you so much, Martha Argerich, always.
What a great wonder she is! I'm in awe. Still after all the years she executes with such a fine touch and emotional finesse. Obviously the years have not dulled her sensibilities. So happy to see and hear this.
How lucky the audience, how privileged are we to be able to hear this historic performance. Bravo to all - M.Argerich (unbelievable), the marvelous conductor with his pared down orchestra and for Beethoven eternal gratitude times infinity.
Earliest recollection is Jascha Heifitz violin virtuoso and Sergei Rachmaninoff symphonies enjoyed through classic radio station imbued me with exponential knowledge. Love your exquisite ethereal enchanting piano performances.
What a performance! Gabor Takas-Nagy - How pleasant it is to see someone who so obviously enjoys his work! The same can be said of Argerich who is still superb at 78. They work well together.
ive been many times in this fantastic concert hall, in my opinion one of the best in europe with great acoustics and lovely art deco, conductor and soloist outstanding
Listening to Ludwig and Joan through this interpreter is a delight to abolish the surge of everyday noises and images to half-open the space of elsewhere where contingency and representation give way to the immateriality of the sensitive. The expressive power of the sound architecture breaks with any form of transcription of reality to attach itself to the expression of a fabulous universe where the color and the hythm of the compositions constitute an expiration which gives voice to the exaltation ☺
This is absolutely exquisite, you just have to love the music of Beethoven and Mozart! It’s addictive, powerful and totally beautiful. Martha is a true Goddess of the piano, and the conductor is completely and happily absorbed by every note, it’s such a pleasure listening and enjoying it, I did not want it to end 👏👏👏.
To hear this concerto performed with the elasticity of chamber music is wonderful! Fantastic soloists all, and one happens to play the piano. Bonus: Argerich singing solfège sixteenth notes, under her breath, during the final statement of the Rondo theme. Amazing.
Nowadays we can't usually listen to her play as a soloist..So it' s precious opportunity. This is the first time I listened to her Beethoven's concerto. How fantastic ! She must be a greatest pianist and I love all of her!
Seit Wilhelm Kempf habe ich eine so schöne Aufnahme diese Werkes nicht mehr gehört. Unglaublich in welchem Tempo sie das Scherzo bewältigt und dabei den Humor dieses Satzes auch noch auskosten kann, Der agogische Umgang mit den Tempi ist einfach wunderbar und und unglaublich Spannungsreich. Das ist ein Musterbeispiel an Musikalität und einfühlsamen Humors.
A true “reference recording”! Breathing new life into an exquisite first masterpiece fro Beethoven. Made listen to an old favorite in a new way. Bravo!

Waiting for the next wonderful work 🙂
This concerto was not Beethoven's first; it was the first to be published. What we know as the Second Piano Concerto was his first to be composed.
You nailed it. Best version I’ve heard.
Glorious Music. Majestic. May God Work Miracles In Your Life! JRMcD
I, minor pianist, am fighting with breast cancer, and this performance really encourages me. Absolutely splendid!!!
...que tengas mucho éxito en tu lucha contra ese mal
I hope Martha sees your touching comment. If she can beat it, so can you! Keep fighting!
Thank you very much! Yes, I will never give up fighting with cancer and hope someday soon I will be able to play this Concerto!
Thank you very much, Will Lang, according to her autography, she has had an experience as well. My left arm does not have feeling yet, but I willl keep working on rehabilitations!!!!
Muchas gracias por su aliento, Francisco Espinoza Gamboa!
Lucharé contra esta enfermedad y creeré que podré tocar el piano como antes.
