Perhaps missing the pockets of lightness that Horowitz reveals, but the whole performance is absolutely staggering - unbelievably powerful with clear and direct expressivity.

@jaeyer0 becoz youtube is full of talentless bastards which doesnt understand music and just click on the one who is the fastest with best audio quality.

Aah!!! ... Technique here always at the service of expression!... and such continuity of 'line'.... A veritable master class of what heights true artistry can aspire to reach...

Not particularly inspiring
-
Van Cliburn has his own, very impressive interpretation.. (Playing the piano has nothing to do with 'who is the fastest'.)

bravo

@nearenough3 I find myself tending to agree with you.

@88alan8800 Cliburn held Rubinstein in high esteem, he worshipped Ruby:)
Why all the hating on this performance? Yes, I prefer the Horowitz version too but it's completely ridiculous to say this was bland or uninspired.
