Martha Argerich, Herbert Blomstedt, Beethoven 

Herrliche Aufführung. Das Largo ungemein gefühlvoll und jeder Ton auskostend in der hervorragenden Akustik. Virtuos der 1. Und 3. Satz. Zwei überaus große Giganten in der klassischen Musik. Ausgezeichnetes Orchester. Höchste Kunst.

Nur eines möchte ich im Himmel nicht missen: Diese Musik! Aber da sie ja von oben kommt, dürfen wir hoffen ...

Martha Argerich and Herbert Blomstedt are performing geniuses. And, of course, there is the rarest of geniuses, Beethoven, to celebrate on the 250th anniversary of his birth, today. We should be thankful for all of them.

Ludwig van Beethoven vereint Martha Argerich, die grande Dame des Pianos und Herbert Blomstedt, den großen Maestro des Taktstocks zu einem Gipfel musikalischer Kultur. Von dieser Zusammenkunft zweier optimal zusammenpassenden Giganten der klassischen Musik wünsche ich mir noch viele mehr und wünsche beiden vor allem Gesundheit und alles Gute. Herzlichen Dank für dieses einmalige unvergeßliche Erlebnis!

Both conductor and pianist look old. But, the music they make is filled with youthful spirit. No hint of an advanced age (whatever it may be.) This is a classic! A collector's item to be cherished and appreciated.

These wonderful artists make us feel: Music is love in notes!

Beethoven performed brilliantly is food for the soul

First of all- what a delight to once again here this beautiful Beethoven played by the one who has been performing for many decades.We all love you Martha.

Es gibt keine bessere Interpretation dieses Klavierkonzertes! Ich bin Jazzbassist und muss als solcher immer dafür sorgen, dass das Timing nicht wackelt und es teuflisch swingt. Martha Argerich macht das auch, aber sie bremst oder steigert das Tempo oder die Lautstärke, je nachdem wie es Ihrem musikalischen Gefühl entspricht. Die Melodie erhält dadurch eine viel größere Aussagekraft, trotzdem swingt das ganze Orchester und unterstützt dadurch den dramaturgischen Ablauf dieser Komposition von Ludwig van Beethoven. Ein großes Kompliment an das Orchester und den Dirigenten.

So etwas (Wunderschönes und Kraftvolles) lassen wir uns durch den Virus nicht nehmen !!!

Absolutely fantastic! Beethoven is the best composer anyway! Mr. Blomstedt directs without a stick. But the orchestra knows anyway what to play. And Mrs. Algerich probably could play the piano even when halfasleep when in bed??? Hope to meet Mr. Blomstedt someday. He lives just a mile from me... Thanks for this wonderful music!

Was für Persönlichkeiten!

Ein großartiges Konzert-2 wunderbare und bewundernswerte Musiker die mich mit Freude erfüllen. DANKE

Amazing, the conductor just turned 93!!

I just sit back and enjoy, but certainly have an opinion of my own! Beautiful performance dearest Martha! 💓

In joyful tears. Absolutely incredible music making. What a gift to be able to hear this played like it's just been written. I'm just grateful.

💖💐Herzdank! Wunderschön! 💐💖

Une admiration sans borne pour ce grand chef d orchestre

Great Martha/beautiful legato 2 mov/ork and Herbert +5!!

What an amazing combination!! What a delight! Absolutely love the conducting of Blomstedt and the whimsy - placed to perfection where it matters - of Argerich. This is my favourite version of no.1, now!

Notable dúo, más bien trío... Martha Argerich, Herbert Blomstedt, Beethoven. Esta argentina nos representa en todo el planeta. Beethoven es eterno y el maestro Blomsted es un muy notable y anciano director. ¡Felicitaciones!

Maravillosa versión filmada el 14 de agosto de 2020, Martha Argerich tan bella como.siempre y conservando íntegras sus dotes pianísticas, este concierto y el Conc en sol de Ravel han sido durante largos años los 'caballos de batalla" de Martha, pero si interpretación ha evolucionado porque ha pasado de una interpretación más dura y seca, con carácter militar diría yo, a una mas dulce y poética, maravillosa conducción del Maestro Blomstedt pese a sus 93 años! Hermosa versión!!! Martha toda mi admiración para Ud!!!!

When I saw the title I thought my head was going to explode! But when I observed the video quality I felt like my head was going to implode. But now that I'm to the music audio after the opening applause, and the quality is acceptable, my head pressure is in equilibrium.

Wonderful interpratation great pianist martha Algerich!!! Técnic 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🙌🙌🙌🙌I love!! Thanks ! Give me a Very relax moment!!!

Incredible left hand work! GOD bless Martha and Blomstedt, and all performers in the name of Jesus!😍

Simply Gods

Un duo extraordinar, pianista si dirijorul!! Inegalabila Matha Argerich, da stralucire prin interpretarea sa oricarei lucrari muzicale! Clapele pianului sub degetetele sale au rezonante divine!! Multumim pentru postare ,un regal!! Silvia Baciu

Martha ist im musikalischen Himmel unterwegs und kann völlig frei gestalten…dies ist nur möglich dank der einfühlsamen Begleitung von Herbert Blomstedt und dem wunderbaren Lucerne Festival Orchestra🍀❤️!!!

Priceless!

So many surprises, Such delicacy and joy.

Magnificent!

Magnifique !

Absolutely stupendous! My God, the energy!

Grandioso, Bravísimo..Gracias

great!

I wasn't super impressed with her composition of the cadenza but I was somehow impressed by her interpretation of her own composition.

Les seniors (173 ans à eux deux) peuvent encore être performants, mieux que performants: parfaits.

Amazing

Ils étaient déjà entrés séparément dans la légendé par leur immense talent. Maintenant ils sont entrés ensemble dans l’éternité. Ce sont des dieux vivants.

It was sad to see MA have to carry Ozawa onto the stage for the Choral Fantasy. On ths occassion howevee Blomstedt could have carried her. I just hope I have it together, both mentally and physically, at either of their ages.

unbelievable

What a great venue but at the same time so very depressing to see the social distancing among musicians and audience of what the world has to go through, mind blowing psychological armageddon.......

I wish I could play this wonderful music in high quality on my home stereo... Where can I purchase this audio recording or download flac file? Thank you

Solist og dirigent er vist til samme n 173 år.

I was there that day. I prefer the second half of the concert when Blomstedt conducted Beethoven’s second symphony. To be honest the mask of Lucerne Festival was quite unbearable.

Ok

Klangliche hochsensibler hochgenuss. 🎹🎻

아르헤리치의 연주는 젊어서나 나이 들어서나 여전하군요 최상에 이르지 못한수준으로

Blomstedt malt, hochsensibel

Und das schumann am ende??????????

Treason. This is not a Concerto dedicated to geriatry. This is the young Beethoven. With balls full of testosterone and strength. Not for oldies.

アルゲリッチの勝ち。世界一流の指揮者も、オケも手下にしてしまう。何てすごいババアなんだ。
