Martha Argerich

on: October 18, 2017, 02:08:16 PM

Martha Argerich is performing with the Santa Cecilia Orchestra at the Kennedy Center in DC next Wednesday, Prokofiev's Piano Concerto No. 3. Also being performed are the Fountains and Pines of Rome & parts of Aida.

Is anyone going to the performance? Have you seen Martha Argerich perform before?

I'm really excited to see one of my favorite pianists live for the first time. She really inspired me when I was younger to continue playing piano, along with Claudio Arrau. It helped to have two strong South American pianists to identify with.

Speaking of South American pianists, have you ever heard of Alexandre Dossin?
