"A recording of unforgettable concerts from the Chopin and His Europe Festival in the jubilee year of 2010. Martha Argerich, Mischa Maisky, the Sinfonia Varsovia orchestra under the baton of Jacek Kaspszyk. Superb interpretations of masterpieces by Chopin: the Piano Concerto in E minor op. 11 and the Sonata in G minor for Piano and ’Cello op. 65. The emotions, atmosphere and experience that can only be had from a live recording, combined with performance of the highest quality."

"On this disc, we hear two sides of Fryderyk Chopin: youthful, full of reverie but also vigour, in the Piano Concerto No. 1 in E minor, Op. 11 and the Introduction and Grande Polonaise brillante, Op. 3 for cello and piano; and very
Read more serious, with a hint of tragedy, in the Sonata in G minor, Op. 65 for piano and cello." - Challenge Records Read less
