This special edition collects all the Deutsche Grammophon recordings made by pianist Martha Argerich with conductor Claudio Abbado over more than 45 years. Their close collaboration began in 1967 with Argerich's brillant concerto debut release of the Prokofiev Third and Ravel G major. A live recording of two Mozart concertos from the 2013 Lucerne Easter Festival crowned this extraordinary musical partnership.

With this special edition DG pays tribute to an extraordinary musical partnership. The 5CD box set collects all the concerto recordings made by pianist Martha Argerich with conductor Claudio Abbado over more than 45 years.
Martha Argerich and Claudio Abbado got to know each other through Friedrich Gulda, with whom they both studied in the late 1950s. Their close collaboration in the studio began in 1967 with Argerich’s brilliant concerto-debut release of the Prokofiev Third and Ravel G major. Each recording since then has been a major success.
