That half is the best part of this colleciton, taped live across three summers, 2002-04 in Lugano, Switz. The half without Ms. Argerich features other stellar musicians, particularly Maxim Vengerov and Yefim Bronfman, but theyir participation is surprisingly low-key.Argerich loves to play two-piano music, a genre I find too bangy to be interesting much of the time. She zips through a piano transcription of Prokofive's Sym. 1 with Yefim Brongman, and sparkles in a similar arrangement of the Nutcracker Suite with a parnter unknown to me, Mirabela Dina. I'm sure a lot of listeners will have as much fun with fluff as she does.Her two major contributions come in a riveting Shostakovich Pianto Trio #2, one of his undoubted masterpieces, with Vengerov almost dominatig the ensemble in his mesmerizing account of the violin part. This reading isn't as fiery as Argerich is wont to be, but it has passion enough ot stand beside the best performances (the composer's own and the one with Richter and the Borodin Trio). The second-best thing here is the Schumann Piano Quintet, again finding Argerich in vigorous but not slashing mode (Gott sei dank), easily taking charge and making this a quintet for piano solo with string obligatto. A fine account despite the imbalance.The half without Argerich is pleasantly done. I had hoped for much more form Vengerov and Bronfman in the Brahms Violin Sonata #3--maybe the warm July breeze off the lake made them a bit drowsy. A Schubert Piano Trio #1 again finds Bronfman in too relaxed mode; the piece lacks spine and attack. The rest of these three CDs is filled out with Argerich accompanying Geza Hosszu-Lagocky (a fine violinist unknown to me) in Schumann's late, rather debilitated Violin Sonata #1, a lovely account without quirks, and a pleasant but hardly memorable Dvorak Piano Quartet #2 led by Walter Delaunt.All in all, a bargains et of very good performanes that sometimes rises higher than that. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sprengt alle Grenzen *by S***S on Reviewed in Germany 🇩🇪 on May 13, 2008* Nur über Martha Argerich will ich schreiben. Ist ungerecht, weil viele andere grossartige Künstler um sie herum versammelt sind.Sie ist die Einladende und der Motor.Darf man wirklich so spielen ? So explosiv, so überschäumend, alle Grenzen sprengend. Argerich gibt beim Schubert Klavierquartett ein Tempo vor, dass einem Hören vergeht ( Sehen sicher auch, wenn man sie in ihrem Furor am Klavier sähe).Mit anderen Aufnahmen ist diese Wiedergabe nicht zu vergleichen. Die jungen Musiker um sie herum halten mit, werden von ihr in diesen Hexenkessel mit hineingezogen.Ist ein solcher Furor dem Stück adäquat ? Wenn ich bei Verstand bin, schreibe ich, nein, sie übertreibt. Aber der Verstand geht verloren, wenn man dieser Musiker in ihrer Ekstase hört. Erschöpft sinkt man nieder, erschlagen von diesem Feuerwerk.Sternstunden, die nur live entstehen können. Herr Schumann möge entschuldigen, mich hat es es hinweg gerissen. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Brava , bravissima Martha *by C***U on Reviewed in France 🇫🇷 on March 15, 2011* Les places à Lugano étant chères ( au sens propre et figuré ),nous pouvons nous estimer heureux de pouvoir assister à ces concerts via ces CD . On entend que les musiciens sont tous - du premier jusqu'au dernier - très contents d'être là , rien ne vaut l'atmosphère d'un concert inspiré .D'autre part , le festival sort volontiers des sentiers battus , ce qui nous permet d'entendre dans les meilleures conditions du répertoire assez rare .Pour tout cela , un grand merci et bravo à Martha , au festival et à EMI . --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pl/products/1301610-live-at-the-lugano-festivals-2002-2004](https://www.desertcart.pl/products/1301610-live-at-the-lugano-festivals-2002-2004) --- *Product available on Desertcart Poland* *Store origin: PL* *Last updated: 2026-05-27*
