David Smith is in my opinion one of the 20th century's greatest pianists (I usually prefer his performances to both Horowitz and Michelangeli - with both of whom he has been compared - to put his playing in context). This is such a rare and precious recording because Smith abandoned his career in music through disillusionment with the music profession. Thanks so much for sharing it. Did your teacher study with David Smith? Do you have more of Smith recordings?

Yes I agree that this is one unbelievable breathtaking performance. How unfortunate that I heard this so late in time and there are not even any documents that would have informed me of his existence as a brilliant pianist. Was he American? The world missed a great musical experience with people like David Smith and Annie Fischer.
