Horowitz treats this piece as a caricature. He plays it not as an elegant waltz but as a bombastc mechanical piece with his bizarre sense of art,. Godowsky plays it as it should be.
@MrTomt1990 , it's "knew", not "new". Whether someone personally knows someone else is irrelevant. It is evident Horowitz is an overrated interpreter. Check out Godowsky's version.
@freeqwerqwer "For Rachmaninoff, Horowitz was a champion of both his solo works and his Third Concerto, about which Rachmaninoff remarked publicly after the 7 August 1942 Hollywood Bowl performance that “This is the way I always dreamed my concerto should be played, but I never expected to hear it that way on Earth.”"
@New4785689 Really ?! I've rechecked my video: it only contains the 8 titles of the description above, and only one waltz (op. 64 n°2 in C sharp minor). Which waltz is missing in your opinion ?
