Concerto for Piano and Orchestra in A minor, Op. 54
The phenomenally gifted pianist Martha Argerich has elicited near-fanatical devotion from her public as well as a rare consensus among critics who have exhausted a vocabulary of superlatives in describing her art. In 1977 Miss Argerich visited the studios of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation's French Network in Montreal for a rare television appearance, performing the Schumann Piano Concerto and works for solo piano. Video Artists International is proud to present this, the only available video documentation of Martha Argerich in a concerto performance. This telecast amply demonstrates the qualities that led Mstislav Rostropovich, in a recent New York Times interview, to praise Argerich as "a pianist with no limits at all, none whatsoever."
