Rating:  out of 5 stars - Powerful Chopin
I received this cd in the 50 cd box "Decca Piano Masterworks" from Amazon France. This box will be available here in a little while. With all cds in this box at a price of $2 per disc, a little patience, for this and a number of outstanding discs, will pay of handily.

When it comes to Martha Argerich and BJ, the long time relationship has been a rocky one. Both in concert and in recording there have been things that I greatly admired e.g. Schumann's Kinderszenen and things that I did ... Read More



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Little attention to detail and nuance
I don't know why Argerich is so adored. Playing everything fast and loud doesn't constitute a great performance.

They are played badly by so many novices, and indifferently by so many aspirants, that it is easy to make them sound stale. But Argerich's version has stood aside from all of that hubbub.

Rating:  out of 5 stars - Lixo total
Imagine um Chopin onde só o virtuosismo e a "destruição" do teclado é a constante. Im agine um Chopin agressivo e desprovido quase totalmente de rubatos.Francamente,acho que Argerich não tinha a intenção de tocar Chopin.
