Right from her first legendary Deutsche Grammophon recording of the work with the Claudio Abbado and the Berliner Philharmoniker, Ravel's brilliant jazz-inspired Piano Concerto in G has been a staple of Martha Argerich's repertoire: a work whose scintillating rhythms, sparkling passage-work and melodic inspiration seem tailor made to the legendary Argentinian pianist's remarkable gifts. And that fact is clear to see and hear in this thrilling performance filmed in the Alte Oper in Frankfurt in September 1990, in which Argerich is joined by the Orchestre National de France and conductor Charles Dutoit.
