Renaud Capuçon & Martha Argerich - Beethoven, Schumann, Franck (2022)

Renaud Capu‡on & Martha Argerich came together in April 2022 for a joint recital at the Easter Festival in Aix-en-Provence. Their extraordinary rapport comes across in this performance of 3 of the repertoire's finest violin sonatas, captured live in a concert that they dedicated to pianist Nicholas Angelich. Having first met over 30 years ago, Capu‡on & Argerich know one another so well that, whenever they go out on stage, "there is no fear," says Capu‡on. "It's as if we just hold hands & leap."
