If you read this blog regularly, you’ll know that I like posting master classes. A few days ago, I stumbled across this most interesting rehearsal. It features Argentinian concert pianist Martha Argerich with conductor Charles Dutoit. Recorded in 2009, Argerich, who needs no introduction such is her world-wide appeal, rehearses the Piano Concerto in G major by Maurice Ravel. Subtitles are by Claire Rosnel.

This short film offers some fascinating insights into Argerich’s rehearsal process and the issues one might encounter when rehearsing with an orchestra.
