I have studied this masterpiece off and on for decades. I know it well. For me, this performance is absolute perfection. I have not heard anyone come close -- not Brendel, not Goode, not Schnabel, not Schiff -- and certainly not me :-) Her astonishing pianistic command makes things possible for her that aren't available to almost anyone and she uses that rare ability to achieve a musical result that I couldn't have even imagined was possible. A pianistic genius playing the work of a composing genius.
Martha, the goddess of piano herself.. ❤ playing a piece I havent heard either. Beethoven would be smiling and so am I. Thank you for uploading this. 🎼
What a gift from Martha Argerich; and that we might in this life-time attend one of her concerts - how privileged we are; her musicianship: it’s as though generations of her heritage are demanding expression; we love your talent Martha and thankful for all your work so that we can hear the music of the brilliant classical composers. Thank you for posting!
I'm sorry, but why do you use the word 'unbelievable' in regard to a typical performance of a common Beethoven sonata? Well played, to be sure, but 'incredible'?
Wow ! Thankyou ! However magic connections you have to make seeing this real . Her intelligence and insight into early Beethoven is a gift . Wonderful that We have her live ! and on film playing this ! The op.101 AM she does too !
Many more wonderful things still to come. You can thank the UK government for having imposed a national lockdown last winter. We were all stuck at home so this is when I uploaded all these recordings on RUclips
I am going away on holidays next week so I won't be posting for a while. I am going to post another recording this coming Sunday. Which one do you prefer? Audio recording of the Grieg concerto in Sweden 1968 (very good sound) or video from Japan in 1998 of Martha and Jura Margulis playing Mussorgsky 's Night on a Bald Mountain?
Watching this in 2024 - what a horrible video and sound quality! We've come a long way with digital technology. But the playing is outstanding, absolutely superb! Two geniuses, the composer and the player coming together. First movement in Presto, as Beethoven wanted it, not this showing off with racing speed, common in today's recordings.

What a talent.

I like those pianists who are in older generations. They devoted into the qualities of music instead of showing off personal appreals.
UNBELIEVABLE, young and so talented, lovely Martha! 💓

Blown away by the 2nd movement. Thank you for posting.
Her 4th moviment is the best I have ever heard! Simply amazing!
1st mov: 0:18
2nd mov: 7:02
3rd mov: 17:02
4th mov: 19:23
Thank you so much.
Second movement has me in tears, and the rest of it is amazing too.
Oh, Charles, an outstanding discovery. Martha and Beethoven my second most favourite after Martha and Schumann. Brilliant sourcing. Thanks, Hywel x

just exquisite Beethoven...
Thank you, Charles, for another precious jewel!
This was the same concert where she played Bartok sonata and Chopin 24 preludes. Such a heavy repertoire.

Martha Archerich is 80 now. She would have been like 35 in this.
