Pianist Martha Argerich and violinist Itzhak Perlman, scheduled to appear in a joint recital in March and April in San Francisco, New York, Chicago and Los Angeles have announced that the concerts have been cancelled due to family and health problems which prevent Argerich from traveling for extensive periods of time. Argerich comments on this decision, saying: “I am very sorry having to cancel my upcoming tour in the United States with Itzhak Perlman, whom I deeply admire and with whom I love playing. Thank you very much for your understanding.”
Presumably the recital with Argerich and Stephen Kovacevich at the Disney Hall in LA in April will also be cancelled.
