Martha Argerich ( 1941 ) was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Winner of the 1965 Chopin competition, she quickly became known for her blistering tempos on difficult works such as Ravel's Gaspard de la Nuit, Liszt's Piano Sonata and Rachmaninov's Third Piano Concerto. She also performed several works for two pianos with her longtime friend and pianist Nelson Freire.
