Martha Argerich and Mischa Maisky are some of the most iconic artists of their generation and have featured, for some decades now, among the main players on the international music scene. Their unwavering friendship, shared freedom and almost telepathic complicity have been drawing the crowds for over half a century. When seen side by side, they seem like musical twins, united by a single breath. In these two performers, the cello/piano repertoire, the beating heart of chamber music, has found truly exceptional interpreters: the radiant versatility of the piano is wedded to the sensual depth of the cello in a dialogue of rare intensity. She is an Argentine-born pianist and now naturalised Swiss citizen, a former child prodigy who has become a major figure of her time. Having been trained in Buenos Aires, London and Vienna by some of the greatest masters, she combines passion with absolute artistic freedom. A strong-willed and proud artist, she refuses to be confined by any single repertoire. She simply plays what she loves. He is a Latvian-born Israeli cellist, whose life has been as eventful as his dazzling career. He was a pupil of Rostropovitch, who describes his play as follows: “[He] combines poetry and exquisite delicacy with an exceptional temperament and brilliant technique”. As a duo, everything is drawn closer and stripped back. For just one evening, they will invite the audience into their musical intimacy: a privileged space where the listener is invited to bear witness to these incredible artists with their unrivalled chemistry.
