Reviews:
Sensational, grandiose, stellar – these adjectives are used in the review below to characterize a concert performance by Martha Argerich. Well, one could add another – rare, for the diva of the keyboard all too often skips concerts on short notice, sometimes even when the audience is on the way or in the hall.
Even more important that some radio stations are browsing through their vaults. This disc comes from the Bavarian Radio Station, the same one that recorded her now famous performance of the Tchaikovsky 1 in 1983, which was issued on Philips Classics.
While Argerich performed the Beethoven 1 rather often, the real gem in this collection is the Mozart concerto. Afaik, she only performs five of Mozart solo piano concertos, and KV 456 was only recorded in 1973. Strange, in my opinion, as Mozart's exuberant music should suite Argerich's playing just fine.
I was rather suprised to find out that it doesn't really click on this one. It is a better performance than a lot of others, but it certainly is NOT a typical Argerich recording. Still, there are some fine moments on it, and this might be the only recording available. Enjoy.
A concert by Martha Argerich is always sensational, sometimes
grandiose, and occasionally the audience experiences a truly stellar event. Going through the archives of Bavarian Broadcasting, the feeling was unanimous, and many “ear witnesses” themselves remembered the concerts: on these evenings Argerich was in top form, collaborated with two congenial conductors, inspired the orchestra and drew inspiration from it. In short: these live recordings should, indeed must be heard! Especially with this artist, the medium of live recording is especially valuable. Before an audience in the sold-out hall, there developed a knack for communication and spontaneous music-making with a downright personal appeal to the listener.
For the Mozart concerto, Eugen Jochum mounted the podium of the Symphonieorchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks. He had a special
relationship with the orchestra, having been the first chief conductor of the newly founded ensemble since 1949, a position he held until 1960. Seiji Ozawa was and is regularly heard as a guest conductor in Munich, where audiences look forward to his return in the 2009/2010 season. After the concert evening in June of 1983 the audience and reviewers were unanimous in their enthusiasm, as attested by the Abendzeitung: “Martha Argerich, currently in the form of her life, played (…) with inimitable fire without forgetting intimacy, sensitivity and expression.”
