Martha Argerich’s exhilarating early recordings, released here for the
first time, include sonatas by Mozart and Beethoven that appear nowhere
else in her discography; Prokofiev’s Third Sonata is also a recording
première. This set displaying the young virtuoso includes her
first recordings of Ravel’s Gaspard and his Sonatine, as well as Prokofiev
Seventh Sonata, full of mystery and verve. They show her to be an
eloquent and imaginative artist at the age of 18, already at the peak of
her abilities. This release documents some of the radio recordings she
made for North German (NDR) and West German Radio (WDR) in 1960 and 1967
and is released in time for her 75th birthday celebration on 5th June
2016.
