麻豆约拍

In June Martha Argerich celebrates her 70th birthday. Today we feature her blistering and intense performance of Chopin's "Funeral March" Sonata. She shot to fame when she won the International Chopin Competition in 1965, and since then her aversion to the press and publicity has meant she has led a very private life.
