- Extract of the 2016 Kennedy Center Honors show broadcast on CBS on 27 December 2016, when stars and colleagues paid tribute to the latest honoree, the legendary Argentinean pianist Martha Argerich.
Watch the actual conferment by President Barack Obama on 4 December 2016, and the pre-show red carpet interviews with Argerich, at:

A joy to watch Martha gathering the affection of Yuja, Domingo, Barenboim and Perlman, and high honors from America that she utterly deserves. Martha Argerich is one of the few true international artists of immeasurable regard.
To quote maestro Perlman, we are ALL lucky to be alive to experience the genius of Argerich.
THIS is what we need in today's world. Art, specifically Music, is an INSEPARABLE essence in our lives. Martha, is the Queen of this essence.
Agree 100 percent!
The arts are the highest expression of the human spirit.
Marta Argerich, Daniel Baremboin, Bruno Gelber y tanto otros, no solo en la música, sino en muchas otras disciplinas artísticas. Cuánto talento compartido al mundo. Que orgullo ser Argentino!
I have never seen this much beautiful aging. When she was young I didn't think like this. She is getting greater and greater and defining perfection. She plays incomparably when she was young. It is just out of any scales.
When I was little I heard a recital by Martha and I felt like I was lit on fire. Her playing is that electric.
If I ever see Martha face to face, I'll bow to her royalty.
How can it turn into a Catastrophic?

Wow! no sabia que Marta fue homenajeada en el Kennedy centre honors. Increible! Maravillosa artista.
What a wonderful tribute to this woman, who is already a legend.
Excellent!!! God save Martha !
Argerich is a giant.
An outstanding talented pianist. She makes difficult pieces childs play. Incredible virtuosity…😮
I was booked to see Martha in Sydney in 2019, and she cancelled last minute but her replacement was Yuja Wang!
One genius honouring another. There are no words to express so dazzling moment it was. I have great admiration for these two marvellous pianists.
such an amazingly talented woman. She so deserves this
Video of Martha playing was a total miss. Her speed and accuracy during her performances of various concertos should have been shown. She is amazing!
What you would expect? Did you see the interviewers asking her if she plays concerts? Nobody was really prepared not even Obama pronouncing her name wrong. After all US has never been focused and/or appreciative of classical music or art.
I agree. The whole segment was a joke and not indicative of her talent. I don’t get it. 🙄
I am very sorry to disagree. Martha’s gifts are innumerable. Yes, her technique, her motor skills are dazzling. No doubt. I am not alone in listening to the depth of her musical intelligence that brings order to musical feelings and emotions. Her vibrant presence is as if I am hearing her play the war horses of the keyboard for the first time. And then hearing her play the same piece again as if for the first time, discovering new contrasts and lines of continuity. It’s her musical intelligence and spontaneity; her risk taking in the moment that comes out as if practiced countless times before that enthralls and enchants me. I find a touch Plato’s Divine Madness in her performances. 🙏🙏🙏
@@jtt306 obviously her musicality is beyond amazing, but they could have gone with a montage of pieces maybe her Prok 3, some Chopin or the Schuman concerto.
Plus they seemed to say obvious things that sure are true but don't go deep into what it is the soul of Martha Argerich.
It was just a horrible video montage of Augerich through the decades of her brilliant playing. Obama could have at least pronounced her name correctly at the medal ceremony!
I enjoyed her art live, a couple of years ago in Teatro El Círculo, Rosario, Argentina. What an amazing artist. President Peron had the wisdom to presage the brilliance of little girl Marta.
thank god he didnt get too close to her...
She is who She is thanks to President Peron and She says it.
Yesss, Well done Peron!!
There is only one in our Century, we are so lucky.
Thanks for posting this.
What a most special & beautiful occasion for such an incredible pianist .Simply one of the best amongst so many we can admire & love to hear throughout our daily lives.
POR DIOS QUE ORGULLO,QUE EMOCION ,SIN PALABRAS
Martha Argerich una gran artista que merece todos los honores
Thank you for posting this! So beautiful.
Ella es genial, admirable!!! Apasionada y disciplinada. Gracias por compartir
great pianist
Broffman is the perfect choise to play for Martha.
Que enorme Martha!!! Orgullo argentino.
Merveilleuse Martha.
GRANDE MARTHA ARGERICH.
Soy argentino y tengo la misma edad que Martha pero porque cosas tan importantes como estas se emiten en inglés. Somos millones que hablamos español. Según Jorge Luis Borges es el idioma mas importante junto con el inglés. En tanta ocasión que puedo lo expreso los hispano parlantes somos millones y hemos dado mucho al mundo. Gracias
Muy de acuerdo!
Juan Carlos: este es un homenaje, como bien sabe, hecho en el Kennedy Center en USA y por eso está transmitido en Inglés. De todos modos, Ud. puede CONFIGURAR con la ruedita que está en la barra de herramientas abajo a la derecha y hacer click en SUBTÍTULOS/REPRODUCCIÓN AUTOMÁTICA/ESPAÑOL y así podrá leerse lo que digan en el Homenaje. Coincido con alguien que comentó aquí que esto DEBERÍA HABERSE TRANSMITIDO EN ARGENTINA EN TODOS LOS CANALES Y SER NOTICIA EN LAS REDES.
Such an incredible talent
Estuvo hermosa esa reseña.
The best...
I read that Horowitz was offered the honor, but wanted to be the solo person honored not one of several honored each year. The Kennedy Center Committee withdrew the offer when the maestro would not yield.
If that is true it displays extraordinary arrogance.
How can one dislike this video, can't get it.
Only because it was too short to encompass such a wonderful talent.
So proud to be Argentinean like her!!! Orgullosa de ser argentina como ella.
Since when sentimental feel has been faded away ever ?
vamoooo martitaaaa!!!!!!
Marta es La Pianista.
Que maravilla, brava Martha Argerich
Oh, to play the best I could for Martha Argerich and ride off in a scooter to the music of Nessun Dorma.
Aughhh!!.....Marta AND Itzhak too!!!
The Asian women's piece was very nice and she is beautiful to boot.
I love her play 😍😍👏👏👏
给国家供养得 白白 肉肉 美美的 ~ 真是太幸福了。
普通老百姓的我们, 只有 望梅止渴 的份 (¬.¬)
Sanki suyun səsi gəlir .!!!! Piano danışır!!! Azərbaycan Baku
Shit
what is hapening to video frame
Here because of Rick Beato
ARGENTINA
Yuja wang!! ❣️❣️
I remember over ten years ago reading all the know it all saying Yuga isn’t that great. Now she is the soloist they picked to honour Martha....
Beethoven Jam 🔥
What is the composition that Yuja Wang played?
It's Le Grand Tango by Piazzollo
@@Mark-co8gt Argentine composer, great choice to honor Martha!
@@ilikechopin8112 great point!
P.s. I like Chopin too 😄😅
Technique, technique.
Martha is great, but glad I was not at that event.
Why?
@@cody7889 Bizarre and obscure repertoire performed, fake Hollywood type crowd, generic intro speech, terrible bio of her life with only one of her iconic performances (Prokofiev), and worst of all, nothing from the queen herself.
Colly Well, she wasn’t there to perform, she was there to be honored. To relax. Not to please you. :)
@@cody7889 sure, but it was still rubbish. Do you even know who Argerich is? Are you even a fan? There was so little thought put into it.
@@colly7963 Exactly...what is Colbert doing there?
Jeff Goldblum plays what instrument?
Piano...very well..
Piano
@@marciaflyte8978 ehh, he's alright
He plays the T-Rex.
The camera just doesn't undestand how classical music is enjoyed.
Those frenetic cuts just make me dizzy.
¡Aguante Argentina!
I disagree.
Well, it was not a concert. It is a award giving ceremony. Classical music can be listened in many ways. It is more versatile and free than you think
How can it turn into A Catastrophic ( ? )
Why is the video quality so awful? C'mon, CBS!!
Hey genius, this isn't the CBS channel, but some other guy who uploaded the video. So it's not the original source, Einstein.
All wrong! Martha Argerich deserved a longer footage of her recitals, not a tiny minutes!! Plus how could they honor a piano player with a violin player?
Perelman is an old friend of Martha's. They played often together in younger days.
@@nanaobx Ok. But this time it would had been more appropiate to only see Martha playing because it was her time and award. They can play together any other time...
They should have let Yuja go wild instead of harnessing her,
I read Kennedy center honors as Kennedy center horrors
SHE IS LATINOAMERICANA..SHE IS ARGENTINE
9:15
Argerich is fabulous for every reason imaginable. How utterly cringe-worthy this “tribute” was. I would love to her inner running commentary. As per usual, the “tribute” focused on everything superficial. Why are big shot Americans so afraid of true classical culture?
I love that Yuja Wang came to honor her. I do not really like the music, honestly. I bet she didn’t even pick that.
Goodness sakes spell her name right , it's Yuja Wang and she's the best in the World at present time. Martha passed the title to her as Yuja was the only worthy pianist to replace her when she canceled a performance.
@@Etnalleb Apologies, I realize I had typo errors. I dislike autocorrect.
@@Etnalleb I fixed it. Better?
@@Thomas11611 We all make typo's It's I that should apologize for being so harsh.
@@Etnalleb It’s fine! Have a good day!
I ADORE Martha Argerich but I thought the Kennedy Center Honors were for American citizens? As far as Jeff Goldblum's intro, what he said would apply even more to V Horowitz, who WAS an American citizen. I know it was offered to Horowitz but he placed a couple of conditions and it was withdrawn. He absolutely deserved the honor.
That’s what I thought? Is it for American citizen or just any one??
@@loveispatient0808 I found this at the nytimes: "Honorees are generally American. Many years ago, though, the center decided that some honorees could be non-Americans (like Paul McCartney this year) who have made important contributions to American culture."
@@loveispatient0808 I always believed that the Kennedy honors for the performing arts was only for US citizens, so I'm not really sure why Ms. Augerich qualified for the medal. Nevertheless, she is do richly deserving of ANY tribute that can be bestowed this brilliant pianist.
Do you know what those condition were?? I don't remember reading any biographic material relating to Horowitz's being honored with this award and refusing it.
@@pianoman551000 Horowitz wanted to be singularly honored. The Kennedy Center Honors usually five at at time…..not one. Not even for Horowitz.
Al negro le dieron el premio sueco ese de la paz no? Jajajajajajajajajajaja
Would have loved to watch but Obama and Biden entered the picture.
At least you're not petty.
Agree!
The devils are everywhere.
When we had a President with class.
Yes, hits you immediately, doesn't it!
Trump: YMCA!
Thanks to the media making it look like so.
Yes.. Reagan
Martha is undeniable a huge talent and amazing artist, but I ALWAYS cringe when people talk in superlatives. There's so much room for styles and preferences, that, to me, it rings shallow every time.
Exactly. I doubt Martha thought the accolades were appropriate.
I agree with you 100%!!
And it takes courage to say what you say here.
Keep up the great courage!
Bravo.
It is easy to get carried away.
It's an honorific celebration, in the presence of the great lady herself, not an academic symposium. If some of the best musicians of the day want to perform on stage and say nice things about one of their own then that's lovely, and we shouldn't get hung up on a little bit of purple prose.
Puedo asegurar que en Argentina el 60% de la población no saben quién es Marta Argerich.... como siempre exportando talento y acumulando imbeciles.
muy triste esto lo tendrian que haber pasado en tv abierta
Totalmente de acuerdo,el populismo socialista arruinó toda la cultura q algún día pregonó y exportó Argentina.
She’s a wonder of course, but she did not deserve this award, as she has performed so infrequently in the U.S. I think she herself admits this. A far more deserving pianist of equal stature as Martha to have received this award would be Alicia de Larrocha, who DID perform so frequently in the U.S., in recital, with orchestra and in chamber music…even if the honor had to be awarded posthumously.
But this award ceremony was just short of schmaltz…as with the appearance of Yuga Wang playing some negligible trifle by Piazolla. Every Kennedy Center honor ceremony has been as cheap and tasteless as this one. I’m surprised that Martha agreed to be part of it.
Sorry but I don't see any logic on asking other pianist to play on this event. Martha should be playing not Yuja Wang...
This is how it is done at the Kennedy Center Honors. The person being honored never performs….or even speaks.
It would have been nice if Obama would have practiced pronouncing her name correctly.
What's with the rainbows? 🏳️🌈
Unless you can play that shit without having to sight read it you are not doing Martha justice.
You think they're actually sight-reading? Unless their sight reading skills are on the level of Franz Liszt, those sheets are only there in case of a memory slip
@@somerandomnon-importantper3219 Richter did the same thing at his performances, and for the same reason.
@@somerandomnon-importantper3219 The piece that Yuka Wang played wasn't that hard, she probably practiced it for some time and then she played it for Martha.
옷에 무지개색을 강조했군요.동성애를 지지? 하나님 말씀을 어기는것인데.아쉽네요!!!!
SHAME SHAME SHAME ON YOU comparing MARTHA ARGERICH to yuja wang!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wholly inappropriate for Wang to dress like a prostitute. Martha never did this.
Everybody should dress the same, eh? You should dress however I say then, since that's what you just said. Igmo.
Yuja is her own individual, as is any American.
Yuja Wang is one of the most gifted pianists of all time... I'm sure she doesn't care about your opinion.
Yuja W. is just a great technician of the piano, not a great artist of the piano, as Martha Argerich is. The fact that Yuja W. and her non knowledgeable fans think she can dress like a prostitute for a public appearance of this solemnity, really defines her level and theirs!
