Martha Argerich & Friends … Live from Lugano 2016

The music festival which had been held in Lugano in southern Switzerland from April to June ended in 2016 with regret by the withdrawal of the sponsor. It was at the center of the music festival since 2002, “Progetto Martha Argerich Project” for fostering young musicians organized by pianist Malta Argerich. In the project, her friends such as cello Mischa Maisky, piano Stephen Kovacevich, violin Ivry Gitlis all participated, and a vast variety of programs were organized by them. This 3 album’s album is the record of its last 2016. The music festival of 2016 is held from June 7 th to 30 th June. Just see Argerich ‘s performance, the combination of Beethoven’ s “Choral Fantasia”, JS Bach ‘s “Violin Sonatas minor”, readings with “Gaspard de la nuit”, a new repertoire and a repertoire often played when young. It is also appealing to be able to enjoy her performance in various styles.
