Early Recordings

In celebration of the renowned pianist’s 75th birthday, Deutsche Grammophon has released this unique collection of rarities, many appearing here for the first time. Known for her sensuous and intuitive performances, Argerich shines in this riveting curation of both well-known and rare classics, from Beethoven to Prokofiev. Her performance of “Ondine” from Ravel’s *Gaspard de la nuit* displays brilliant reserve and nuance, while her rendition of Prokofiev’s Piano Sonata No. 3 in A Minor is a revelation of rumbling scales and enigmatic, manic melodies.
