Here, for the first time in a single box set, are the 48 CDs that make up Martha Argerich’s recording legacy from 1960 to 2014 with Deutsche Grammophon and Philips, including the four “Lugano Concertos” CDs and the Chopin CD of 1960s radio recordings. The Edition, organized chronologically, comprises BARTÓK: Concerto for Two Pianos and Percussion, BB 115 (Sz 110) Nelson Freire, pianos / Jan Labordus, Jan Pustjens, percussion Concertgebouw Orchestra, Amsterdam / DAVID ZINMAN Review: Simply a Must! - The quintessential addition to cornerstone the beloved collections of any classical enthusiast. Peerless, dearest Martha — arguably the greatest-living pianist. And, possibly, one of the very best to have ever played. Along with the beautiful booklet, inside the box: 48 CDs… recordings are from 1960 to 2014 (the Catalogues are issued from Deutsche Grammophon, Philips; not discounting, her Lugano Concertos CDs, additionally, there are the 1960s radio recordings of her legendary Chopin recitals. Personally, I own two of these CD box-sets — one to play. And one, unopened, as an ornament for my mantle. Evidently, such is the nature of her playing; that being, the ability to couple the impressionistic humanity of pathos and elation, with the elusive incantations that are synonymous and kindred with aspects inclined to those celestial idioms of an ensorcelling quality, there is something to be stated about the way Martha effortlessly labours about with a sort of shapeshifting clairvoyance — rendering her otherworldly performances into peripheries both phenomenological and heartbreaking. She is God-gifted — say what you will about her style or presentation. The manner in which she playfully eddies about the intangible, the, unquantifiable and dare I say it, the heavenly, puts her in a league-of-her-own. Note, the rarity of her voice; it is one that identifies the themes accessible to notions tantamount to being an undeniable force of nature — even when playfully eddying about the softer motifs. Though it’s not in the sense of domineering intransigence; in complete antithesis, she has the gifted ability to fluently court and channel and champion the consciousness’ of the composers oeuvres. Her’s is a voice of selflessness and devotion, it is one of a conduit that gives birth to the soulful, humane apparitions where the scores and pieces of the past can haunt us, countlessly, as though we were hearing them for the first time. Lucian Review: Sublime playing - Like some of the buyers of this box set, I already have quite a few of the CD’s it contains, but to get the ones I don’t own for the price of the set is an absolute bargain. And I have no complaint about the packaging; if the whole kit and caboodle came in a brown paper bag it would still be a bargain. And yes, CD 11 has the wrong cover, but so what, the booklet has the correct tracks. This is a box set of 48 CD’s full of absolutely sublime music, played by one of the greatest, if not the greatest, pianists if the second half of the 20th century; and not only do you have Martha, but a wonderous list of supporting artists – Mischa Maisky, Nelson Freire, Gidon Kremer, Mstislav Rostropovich, Daniel Barenboim et al. Buy this box set, start playing, and you’ll think maybe you’ve died and gone to heaven. Thank you Deutsche Gram, and thank you Martha.

Argerich, die argentinische
Tastentigerin. Mehr braucht man nicht zu sagen. Gerade die Kammermusikschätze sind top und im Preis-Leistungsverhältnis zum Einzelkauf unschlagbar. Zudem spart die hochwertige Box Platz. Das legendäre Rach3 mit Chailly ist auch drin. Ebenso eine sonst nur schwer erhältliche Version von Chopins Klavierkonzert Nr. 1. Bei den Lugano-Konzerten ist der live-Faktor mit drinnen, wobei dort die Leistungen von Interpretin und Orchester regelmäßig etwas auseinanderfallen. Schön wäre gewesen, wenn bei den Lugano-Konzerten auch Kammermusik mit Argerich ergänzt worden wäre. Trotzdem ist mit der Box jeder lauschige Abend bei Rotwein und guter Literatur ein Erfolg.

Imprescindible, edicion hermosamente trabajada, vale completamente la pena
hermosa colección de Martha Argerich del sello Deutsche Grammophon, no siendo experto en el tema de la musica clásica como tal, pero si alguien que la disfruta y se informa debo decir que esta colección esta impecable, Argerich a sido considera de las mejores pianistas del mundo en la actualidad siendo sus mejores grabaciones en la decada finales de los 50s y hasta finales de los 90s tiene un vasto catalogo de interpretaciones memorables, hasta hoy he explorado sus interpretaciones de chopin el cual es uno de mis músicos favoritos y debo decir que es hermoso limpio y pulcro (sobre todo las sonatas, mazurkas y claro las nocturnas) son piezas que tienen una melancolía atemporal, es un placer escucharlas, vale la pena en todo sentido, no me canso de disfrutarlo.

Martha ! What else ?
Diapason d'or pour ce mois-ci ! Ce coffret réunissant les 48 enregistrements DG (et quelques autres enregistrements très intéressants provenant de Philipps aussi) de notre si chère artiste est une véritable encyclopédie de son univers musical.
