Martha Argerich & Mischa Maisky
At one of her rare appearances with orchestra, Martha Argerich, the grande dame of the piano, joined forces with world-famous cellist Mischa Maisky and the fabulous Lucerne Symphony Orchestra for the world premiere of a newly commissioned work by Russian composer Rodion Shchedrin â âRomantic Offeringâ, a double concerto for piano, cello and orchestra dedicated to its very first soloists. The programme was rounded off by late-Romantic masterpieces by CĂ©sar Franck, AntonĂn Dvo?ĂĄk and Dmitri Shostakovichâs Ninth Symphony under the baton of renowned maestro Neeme JĂ€rvi.
