Martha Argerich plays Beethoven

Recorded live in Turin the RAI National Symphony Orchestra conducted by Fabio Luisi perform Beethoven Piano Concerto No. 1 with Martha Argerich and Tchaikovsky's Symphony No. 5.

Martha Argerich is a musical phenomenon, a piano legend who has sold out the world's concert halls for the last six decades. Tonight she plays Beethoven's first Piano concerto, the work with which she made her debut at the age of eight. Fabio Luisi conducts: his international career means he leads orchestras in the US, Europe and Japan. He returns to his native Italy for this concert with Italy's national orchestra which ends with Tchaikovsky's ever-popular Fifth Symphony.

Recorded in October at the Arturo Toscanini RAI Auditorium, Turin.

Introduced by Hannah French.
