Comments by "Jeanne Halperin" (@edalder2000) on "Martha Argerich: 80 Year Old SUPER VIRTUOSO!! How Is This Even Possible?" video.
I discovered Argerich while working at Tower Records. Filing classical was not A-Z by artist. There was also period, then composer etc. I was one of the few clerks who could file classical "correctly" At Tower, classical and jazz was in its own room with doors separating it from the Rock/Pop floor. I could set the play pile and file by the truckload. One CD I always played was Argerich with The Bavarian Radio Orchestra (I think) conducted by Riccardo Chailly. It was Rachmaninoff's Third Concerto and Tchaikovsky's First. Argerich was playing with her hair on fire. It seemed like her fingers were alive. Going quickly and keeping things on track. Many have technique only . Argerich has technique and soul. Argerich doing Rachmaninoff's Third is my favorite classical recording.
