Horowitz plays Scriabin: Etude Op.8 No.12 (1962)

[Dihelson]

Good, but Scriabin own version is PERFECT...Listen to it.

[xcomposerpianistx]

Simply the best Scriabin Op.8 No.12 in the History of music...

One person was so taken aback he missed the like button.

This is beautiful. I love Scriabin's version but Horwowitz seems to have more passion and heart in playing this piece.

[jeanlucchapelon]

Dommage qu'on ne le voit pas!!!

Le meilleur interprète de cette étude pour les nuances la passion mème s'il y a des accrocs(il faut savoir apprécier l'humanité de l'art avec ses imperfections)

[sofrech1991]

I recorded myself playing this etude after being inspired by Horowitz's legendary performances of it. Any feedback would be much appreciated!

[maxiime2B318238]

Cette interprétation m'a submergée comme si je ne pouvais plus entendre que ça. C'est sur cette étude que j'ai découvert Horowitz, un génie, unique.

[Chateaubriand26]

Incroyable interpétation! Il se dégage de cette étude une chaleur et une noblesse que je n'ai encore entendu chez aucun autre interprète. C'est définitivement une pièce d'exellence qui a des qualités rares.

I kinda like it.

Second best. Check the video of Scriabin performing the Etude on a Welte Mignon.

[TheRedArmy10]

@kzelmer I think, Scriabin's recording is a bit strange. Strange for his early works. As I know it was performed by A. S. in 1910 and by that time he had already been a bit "spoiled" by the symbolism and his ideas of The Final Mystery, if you know what I mean. I'd really like to listen to him playing this Etude on is premiere. I bet it was totally different from what we listen to in the Welte Mignon recording.

[lolitaeviston]

I get ready to cry every time I hear Horowitz. So lovely.

[openmindspace]

best recording of Scriabin Etude Op.8 No.12 in History

[rbob200]

great!

[kasyapa]

seems more careful, less demonic than he would be 25 years later, almost cautious. :)

[MrMrMikayel]

Bravo!!!

[britcrit09]

Superb performance! I really like the photo and how it brings a sense of character to the great pianist.

[demosj]

I also like the way he organizes the rhythm at the end, so that the emphasis rests on the two chords at the top of the keyboard, very singular.

[demosj]

I've played Erlkonig and Horowitz's repeated chords at 1:18 boggles my mind every time I hear it. This kind of neurotic mad dog virtuosity sometimes produced awe-inspiring results.

A fixture in Horowitz's interpretations at 0:37, always a tone color change there no matter the stage of Horowitz's career.

The manipulation of the pedal at 1:40 is genius too.

[ultracoolhomies]

Amazing

[Mrilaganjan]

This is a great song played by a magnificent pianist.

[avalanche183]

It's horowitz. Lol.

[davidgray2]

This has all the personal mannerisms of Horowitz....just a bit more neurotic than usual; this recording was made during his reclusive-depressive period.

[spike2133876]

this is a very clear and great quality recording. love this man

[cattleman6420012000]

[DreamPiano]
