Classical concerto collection: Argerich and Abbado's final collaboration

2015-01-05 35

In this week's music special our critic Mariam Saab tells us about the classical power duo made up of Argentinian pianist Martha Argerich and the late Italian conductor Claudio Abbado. Their complete concerto recordings have just been released, an entire career’s worth of collaborations.


We also check out French rocker Pascal Obispo's star-studded 50th birthday celebrations and the new album from British pop duo The Ting Tings.
Finally, we take a look at Romeo and Juliette re-visited, as the Swedish Royal Ballet marks its 240th anniversary here at Paris's Opéra Garnier.
