I love the way she entered. Walks onstage, throws a tissue into the piano, sits down and IMMEDIATELY starts playing before the audience is done clapping. What a Chad.
I'm an INSTANT fan. She walks up, tosses her handkerchief onto the piano sits and plays; no preliminaries, no posturing, no taking a moment to compose herself. She's on stage - ready!
If you've never seen her before you're in for a treat, there's tonnes of other recordings of her and they're all equally classy, she's a true genius and I must crow bar in that I've seen her play this live, it was absolutely brilliant and flawless like it was effortless to her.
@@MikeWalls7829 Before I saw this on youtube I didn't know anything about her but now I'm an instant fan. My wife and I did attend a concert by Dubravka Tomsic in Carmel, California. Probably 30 years ago. We were delighted. I'm willing to be delighted again if Martha Argerich comes to play anywhere nearby. Waiting . . .
I initially skipped the beginning part, and after reading your comment I was like, "Wait a minute, let me go back." Then I laughed my mosquito bites off (internally of course), because she's so nonchalant about it. She's like "This is no big deal," and shrugs it off.
Little do people realize, that bit of tissue visible at 1:53 is not there for any other purpose but for the PIANO to of course have the ability to wipe sweat from itself, after being played by this virtuoso! :-)
It's playable with soft pedal on a upright piano beacuse the hammers are very close to the strings. Forget Forte and play it piano. Not as fast but I physically cannot play as fast anyway...
Scarlatti, вечно юный;, сверкающий луч света, свежий ветерок над Альпийской лужайкой, мелькающая светотень- как точно чувствует стиль Martha Argerich, bravissimo......
If only Scarlatti could listen to her play his music. He would be thrilled as i am. These kind of folks make you love them. Bravo Martha Argerich To be able to play like you for only a day. xoxoxo
es todo un espectáculo: el balanceo del cuerpo, las manos que saltan del teclado y vuelven como martillando, la gestualidad de los labios como queriendo tararear la melodía, pura convicción, pura potencia, y un sonido inconfundible
Com este vídeo aprendi q coordenação motora de guitarrista e violonista não é nada Tocar isso é totalmente rítmico e atencioso, se não houver isso, não tem música, porque essa sonata é isso! Fico muito feliz de ver e ouvir ❤ Muito obrigado
I like how she nonchalantly throws her napkin onto the piano, sits down, and immediately starts playing without waiting for the audience to stop clapping.
This Scarlatti performance by Archerich is so amazing. It made it sound like a beautiful romantic song even though it was a Baroque song. It's such a perfect performance. She really has everything.
Scarlatti was very influential in romantic music, it's logical such a sound coming out from an outstanding and very knowledgeable musician like Argerich
@@JulioLeonFandinhoMany of his sonatas have a Romantic sound when played on the piano. Some of his sonatas sound like Schubert. Some, even like Brahms.
Ceci est de la musique ou de la magie ! On ne sait plus trop où est la frontière, tellement cette grande pianiste possède son art !!!!! Et elle semble s'amuser sur son clavier!!! Le piano lui-même est est tout ébloui!!!
Featherlight touch and the she is rocking them bass notes. She got more fire n energy n determination than half of the black clad rock guitarists out there. Smiles.
I think, instead, she's saying: "please forgive me, for the little mistake in the last hand-crossing passage".... But, Martha, you really don't need to say 'excuse me'... you're too high in the standing of world renowed pianists... :)
Maravilloso descubrir esta sonata de Scarlatti intepretada por las manos prodigiosas de Martha!!! Asombra la técnica,la expresión y la interpretación particular que le aporta Martha a la obra!!!
Mind blowing talent and ability enough to 'shock'. Incredible. Whoever regulated the repetition speed of that Steinway knew their onions! I wonder how the harpsichords back in Scarlatti's time coped with that kind of playing as it was written to be played at that speed. Amazing
A very modern and brisk performance, probably far faster than intended; but I believe Scarlatti would absolutely commend this performance if he heard it.
What the "too fast" critics don't get is that the speed A) is FUN (but not to an art snob), and B) makes the piano sound in spots just like a mandolin tremolo (guessing, intentionally so) . Very Italian! Do you suppose Scarlatti intended this? Don't answer, just smile!
It works, but Domenico Scarlatti's pieces were originally composed for the harpsichord, organ, and fortepiano, not the modern piano. It's a different sonority.
sorry...I think it is too fast. Funny part of it is I've heard it played even faster than this, as if faster were better. Hey, music is not a race! I think the lady knows this but likes to wow the fans.
She is a Pianist. Is there any problem what she play period of early music. Just say "I can not play like her in Pianoforte." Haa..There are many people who can not concentrate their toungue.
Err are you sure this film is being played at the right speed - those fingers are moving like magic with such accuracy and tempo and she makex if look so effortless - incredible performance 👏👏👏
Above & Beyond as usual. This is Impeccably filmed and Her Performance of this is Exemplary. If i had seen this when i was 3, i would wish too, to spend The Rest of My Life doing this. We are so Lucky to be able to see these performances now, so easily. Sorry! There is No Ms.Argerich without The Customary Tissue. How else would Her Piano be able to Blow its Nose???
I also think it's middle-index-thumb! I'm even more awed by the nonchalant way in which she just throws her handkerchief into the piano before sitting down and getting on to it. What an amazing pianist!
Yes, many Scarlatti sonatas are relatively easy to read, but to play them at a decent speed and musically can be very difficult unless you are quite advanced.
splendide argerich ,, selon moi l immense martha n atteint la quintessence d un gould mais elle nous offre des moments rares comme souvent chez cette artiste pleine de vie ,, musicienne dans l âme , l esprit et le corps ,,

I quote .....Martha is the reason I started playing the piano and also the reason why I want to give up ...... breathtaking
To poplife: I like your comment, so synthetic and true. I'm sure you will go ahead with playing, anyway.
Cute of you😢🎉❤

Forensic analysis indeed later found trace levels of piano sweat in the tissue.

Non, c’est parce que que Argerich stresse beaucoup et donc son nez coule.
This woman is from another planet.
È una Stella che brilla di luce propria....
yes, planet Argentina !
Sembra un pò ad una strega ma è mozzafiato
@Val O'Brien no it doesnt you daft moron
No, but she practised a lot :)
She's really testing that piano's repeat action!
For sure. All those repeated notes are why I could never play this piece. They'd kill me!
I think it would require a concert grand with this type of repeat in order to play the rapid succession of repeated notes properly.
about as fast as its double escapement can handle LOLOLOL wonderful
And each not is voiced so clearly it’s amazing
It's playable with soft pedal on a upright piano beacuse the hammers are very close to the strings. Forget Forte and play it piano. Not as fast but I physically cannot play as fast anyway...

It's not just about technique or speed and timing but her sound is very expressive and dynamical.
999kafka yeah =))
agree ...
999kafka Technique & technic are not the same thing.
Is 'dynamical' a word?
You need a lot of technic and speed and timing to make it expressive
You know you have a special talent when the orchestra watches you with awe.
Yes 👍🏿
hahah true, usually, whenever i see the orchestra during encores, they got this blank stare, almost angry they gotta sit through the pianist's moment
She’s 68 here and still playing like an absolute boss....she’s definitely one of my all time faves
you mean 78! :)
@@acidbahia8324 this concert was in 2009
@@nogoogleplusYou are right! And today she's still incredible
what do you mean by "absolute" boss?
@@namenlos2578 She is the boss of the piano: "he" obeys her.
La genialidad de Martha reside en que ella, cuando toca, disfruta. No sufre. Disfruta. Porque ELLA ES LA MÚSICA Y LA MÚSICA ES ELLA.
Dios nos regala briznas gloriosas de su inmensa sabíduría y su creación, cuando ella toca, el.mundo escucha....
Just superb, nothing more can be said 🙌🏻🙌🏻
It's very interesting how she strokes the keys from back to front to achieve a mandolin-like sound. Just amazing!!
When Argerich plays, I am often convinced that it is the only way this piece is supposed to be played.
Entièrement d'accord, c'est ce que je pense depuis la première fois où je l'ai entendue.
musicy88 There are pieces played by Ravel that I like most when they are played by Martha Argerich.
+CEIVE4EVER absolutely. most appropriate example must be her rendition of Gaspard de la nuit. especially Scarbo.
Her playing of Ravel's Concerto in G is other-wordly.
fpoulenc х
La plus grande Martha Argerich ''Richesse de virtuosité . Je vous aime pour votre don d'âme .vs savez émouvoir la terre . Bravo 💓🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻
J'aime tellement regarder et écouter cette immense artiste jouer ce morceau que j'adore.
I love the little grimace when she drops a note toward the end. Sparkling, expressive performance! Scarlatti would have been honored.
i couldn't tell the note she even dropped
If only Scarlatti could listen to her play his music. He would be thrilled as i am.

0:05 lol her walk to the piano and how she throws her Kleenex in the Instrument , totally relaxed
0 fucks given. Totally boss
She did that like anyone would come home from work and just sit in front of the tv

New appreciation for Scarlatti......Played by the reigning royalty of the piano......Followed most of the great pianists. Martha is a Queen for sure.
I love her so much- so incredible

Scarlatti serait allé directement écouter Scott Ross!!!!!!!!!!!!
What a performance!!! Just insane!! 🤯 :D
Гениальное исполнение!
I can’t even play that well in my dreams. And I’m great in my dreams! Beautiful!
Having followed this brilliant pianist one really wonders how she can keep up with the agility that she has shown since she was a young lady. Bravo
very commendable, yes; so many others would have shelved their virtuosity by now. Guess she's on another level of techinique?
Featherlight touch and the she is rocking them bass notes.

Her specutacular performance is beyond description , immeasurable and unfathomable
little example of what makes her so amazing
Scarlatti. As an encore. BRILLIANT.
It is a contradiction of nature that sixty-eight-year-old fingers can move with such speed, dexterity, and control.
Comes in, bows, throws tissues on the piano, sits down and immediately starts playing like it's nobody's business, bows and leaves.
What a chad!

How is it that life evolved on this planet to create beings capable of this level of technical brilliance and emotional expression.
A question with a complex answer. Human dexterity evolved for other reasons than piano playing.
