Argerich combines phenomenal pianism with temperamental intensity, although at times she overwhelms Schumann's lyricism. Gidon Kremer gives a richly characterised account of the Violin Concerto.

About
“In her live recording of the Piano Concerto Martha Argerich gives a vividly compelling, characteristically volatile reading, at once poetic and full of fancy, powerful and often wildly individual… one wants to cheer at the end so freely does the adrenalin flow… this remains an inspirational account that is hard to resist” The Penguin Guide ***
