Argerich in Japan

[SD Tav]

She turned 83 recently. Still going strong. This performance of the Prokofiev 3rd with the Hiroshima Symphony last month shows she still has incredible technique. She must have been dissatisfied with the last movement. She asks the conductor to do a "take 2"!

I've been learning the Chopin Scherzo #2, op31. Whenever I feel like it seems to be getting close to what I think it should sound like, I listen to Argerich's performance and recognize that I should never play it before anyone.

Thanks for posting! It's great to see that she's still kicking ass!

She's remarkable.

Remember Rick Beato did an episode about her?

Argerich and the Hiroshima Symphony are out of new ideas.
