Little known fact, this piece by Mozart helped with the composing of the French national anthem. You can hear the melody from the anthem in this piece starting around 1:30
Her tempi seems completely appropriate. The music flows. Everybody’s else I was able to listen feel slow. To me. No one knows what Mozart himself wanted for his concert. Is there specific instructions for tempo in the score?
I just watched "Casablanca" which features the French national anthem "La Marseillaze" That song was written in 1792 the year after Mozart died. This first movement has been cited as one of the antecedents to it. Play the two pieces side by side and you will hear the similiarity.
Thank you! I was intrigued about an Argerich performance of a Mozart Concerto with the New York Philharmonic, around 1973 that got a negative review by Harold Schonberg in the NY Times. I thought this might have been it... even though I liked it a lot. I wonder what Schonberg must have disliked in her playing if she played this well.
That was a few years later, around 1979 I believe. I don't understand either, she is more known for her barnstorming Listzt, Rachmaninov, Prokofiev and Tschaikofsky, but that doesn't mean she can't play other things! Her Mozart was/is beautiful and it radiates joy. I know she was pretty affected by this comment and she stopped playing this concerto for a long time, but thank God, she took it up again a few years ago. I was lucky enough to hear het play no 25 with Abbado and it was wonderful, nothing remotely 'superficial' as Schonberg called her Mozart at the time.
Argerich is not a natural Mozartean, like Alicia de Larrocha, for example. Of course, she plays the notes very well (probably better than anyone else), but something about this interpretation sounds a bit off...
Martha's virtuosity and lyricism are limitless.... she never ceases to amaze...
I imagine if Mozart heard her play this concerto he would exclaim, "Finally! Someone gets it!"
Long live the Queen of all Pianists! :)
LARGA VIDA A MOZART Y A LA REINA DE TODOS LOS PIANISTAS DIOSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!! ESA MUJER ES SUBLIME Y FUERA DE ESTE MUNDO....INTERGALACTICA!

So incredibly beautiful!!!
WHAT a Moazrt !!! sublime. Rarely played that way. All 3 movements.
Martha played this concerto the romantic way instead of the usual classical way. It turned out quite fine.
GREAT
@psanterim yeah, thanks for the comment, take a look to my others videos! greetings

Magnificent interpretation!!! Whose cadenza is this?
Rouget de Lisle se inspiro en este tramo del concierto para musicalizar lo que posteriormente se llamo la Marsellesa, himno nacional de Francia.
Argerich plays it very fast, but keeps the pianism and musicality intact.
Yes, a bit faster than one is used to hearing... and I think I like it better...
Mozart’s recorded on May 6th,1978 and Beethoven’s on October 1, 1992.
Do you have any information as to when and where this performance took place? Was it in New York.. around 1973?
No, it was in Amsterdam in May 1978 with the Dutch Chamber Orchestra (Nederlands Kamer Orkest) and Szymon Goldberg.

when was this played/recorded?
And who is "Goldberg"? And what is the orchestra?
However my favorite performance is Rudolph Serkin. The way he plays 11:18 sends chills up my spine.
Gulda's
I heard her lung cancer came back? Is this true?
don't you find your comment slightly inappropriate ? This is about her music, not her hospital record.
This reminds me of Donald duck opening theme

oh, could you tell us what a "natural" mozartean is ? Thank you in advance for your information !! Are you a professor, by the way ?
Brilliant from the 1. ton 🎶🎹! I love Martha Argerich🌹🌹🌹
She is not like Mitsuko Uchida :)
@@jesusmanriquezsantana1590 she is better.
