Lugano Concertos 2002 - 2010


“Few artists being such unfettered joy to their music-making as Argerich, and few combine such artless spontaneity, technical brilliance and searching insights. These are qualitites that shine through this marvellous new set...Even collectors who have Argerich playing most of these works already are likely to be as thrilled and elated as I have been listening to this extraordinary anthology” --International Record Review, December 2012



“it's a supercharged, witty performance [of the Poulenc] from 2007; Argerich's lacerating runs in the first movement are worth the price of the set alone...[Scaramouche is] a final helping of joyous, free-wheeling music-making.” --The Guardian, 22nd November 2012 ****

“[Argerich] combines a colossal technique with powerfully instinctive musicianship and electrifying energy. This exciting release is an ideal present.” --New York Times, 23rd November 2012
