  • if even Horowitz's charisma is lost upon you then i'm afraid you're wasting your time here. i for one find his tchaik positively electrifying.

    technique serves only to facilitate musical expression and Horowitz here, is no slave to his technique.

    so go on searching for your midi-perfect recording - i've had it with musical mediocrity.

  • man, no one has ever duplicated the "explosion" that occurs when Horowitz hits those first octaves. Really exciting shit

  • Only Horowitz, Szell and NYPO can perform the piece like this, with the pianist's spontaneity and the orchestra's skills to catch up with him. I wish I could have watched this performance live.

  • Please sell me well but not my soul! That's what is written!!!!

  • That is wonderful, light and precise.

  • @monobrow638 Now*

  • Listen to Earl Wild's octaves...not THEY'RE fast!

  • War of the worlds

  • @12rosebud12 This is the real Con Fuoco

  • this was 1953

  • Was he dying to rush off to the loo?

    WHY that hurry thrughout the entire concert?

  • @davidgray2 Fast doesn't necessarily equate to rushed. Horowitz's technique was great enough that his choice of tempi always seemed sensible (with the exception of his Rach 3 recording with Barbirolli :P )
