Salzburg Festival 2019: Barenboim conducts the West�Eastern Divan Orchestra

Acclaimed by critics as an evening of superlative, Martha Argerich � arguably the greatest living pianist � joins Daniel Barenboim and his West-Eastern Divan Orchestra for an unforgettable interpretation of Tchaikovsky�s First Piano Concerto. Argerich�s playing is full of astonishing virtuosity and uncompromising, alternating with breakneck passages and tender tones: �Martha Argerich is and remains unique� (Die Presse). In addition to Tchaikovsky�s brilliant piece, Schubert�s Symphony �Unfinished� is played, a work that has never been performed during the composer�s lifetime, as well as Lutoslawski�s Concerto for Orchestra, completed in 1945 � a highly demanding technical piece that challenges orchestra members as virtuosos. PROGRAM Schubert: Symphony No 7; Tchaikovsky: Piano Concerto No 1; Lutoslawski: Concerto for Orchestra
