"This magnificent live concert, taped in Tokyo in 2005, provides a fine opportunity to see and hear the performer some of us regard as the finest female classical pianist and perhaps even the finest living pianist period."
(Five Stars AudAud.com)

Legendary pianist Martha Argerich stars in radiant performances of works by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, recorded live in Tokyo at one of three 5th anniversary memorial concerts she gave 'In Joyful Remembrance of Friedrich Gulda', her teacher. Christian Arming conducts the New Japan Philharmonic Orchestra with great vitality, and Martha Argerich is joined on stage by the renowned Renaud and Gautier Capuçon, as well as Gulda's sons Paul and Rico, who accompany her in a jubilant performance of Mozart's Concerto for three pianos in F major, K.242.

"This magnificent live concert, taped in Tokyo in 2005, provides a fine opportunity to see and hear the performer some of us regard as the finest female classical pianist and perhaps even the finest living pianist period. The opportunity is special because the legendary Argerich seldom performs as a soloist, cancels concerts frequently and aside from her annual chamber music festival in Lugano, Switzerland, sometimes remains off the stage for lengthy periods of time."
