Martha Argerich and Evgeny Kissin, despite an age difference of more than 20 years, have developed a special musical relationship.
At the Verbier Festival, the two piano virtuosos have been captivating audiences since their first joint performance in 2000. Their artistic synergy is evident in impressive interpretations of various composers—from Mozart to Milhaud. The Verbier concerts, now available as part of the Verbier Festival Gold series, document this extraordinary collaboration. The recordings from 2000, 2001, and 2011 include works such as Brahms's 'Souvenir de la Russie,' Milhaud's 'Scaramouche,' and Lutosławski's 'Variations on a Theme by Paganini.' The two piano masters understand each other perfectly, which is palpable in every performance they give together.
