Martha Argerich's Lugano festival recordings

[Lethevich]

I've been enjoying the two releases that I have (2009 and 2010) and am interested in picking up the lot - especially as they go for under £10 each on Amazon, but I am not entirely sure of the chronology.

Unless I am missing something, the year-by-year issues begin with 2006, prior to that there is this one for 2003. In addition there is this one with no year on the front, which must either be 2004 or 2005. Does this mean that one is missing, or have I just not noticed?

Presto have a nice sale on these. The sale is up tp 50% off: http://www.prestoclassical.co.uk/argerich.php?k=11&w=Lugano+Festival+Edition

From what I see, it goes, 2002-2004 (green cover), 2003, 2005, and then a yearly set through 2010. The 2007 box has the best Kinderszenen I have ever heard. There is also this disc, which appears to be from an early Lugano. I didn't check if the performances appear on one of the others.

Ah thank you, not sure how I forgot about the 2005 - it /was/ in my basket. Despite the Presto sale, Amazon still comes out cheaper with their normal prices (I had to use marketplace for one, but it was similarly low).

I picked them up, and hopefully GMG will get a cut if the referrer like worked (for once I remembered to use it).

Hope you enjoy them. I have been thinking of picking them up as well - they are just so good.
