Horowitz game has a magical moment ... even from the beginning!

@12rosebud12 Jazz hadn't been invented while Schubert was alive

@BerlinguerEnrico1921 well i think his "tricks" do not always work with Schubert (or Beethoven), that's why he probably never played a lot of these composers, just like Bach. This music is not supposed to be "overromanticised", imho. When Richter plays D960 the time stands still.

I think Horowitz understood nothing of Schubert!In fact he once retired for 12 years after a terrible execution of D960!

je trouve très intéressant l'approche que donne ce pianiste à cette oeuvre mais je préférais tout de même l'approche de Zimmerman sur les Impromptus de Shubert.

Bravo!

If only video cameras were invented in the 1800s oh how many wonderful things we would see today. Its a shame :(

I remember being a bit later than usual to my church organist job that Sunday morning he was on because I was so fascinated with his playing. Several people commented to me afterward about the performance. My husband wound up buying the CD which is still a favorite at our house.
Amazing technical facility for one in his eighties.
Actually, amazing to play so beautifully at any age!
I wish I'd been able to see him play live.
Thank goodness we have, for posterity, some recordings on film of this great pianist.
God bless Vladimir Horowitz and Franz Schubert.
