  • i have really no words...he is telling his whole life playing this...

  • 9:05~9:45 the best part.

  • Horowitz is a hurricane caught in a man. He is brilliant in its execution but sometimes gets carried away by the passion of certain passages and hits the piano.

  • I've heard contestants of the Chopin competition being swallowed by this polonaise.

    The way Horowitz waltzes (polonaises?) through this with ease is just scary.

  • This is the only rendering I have heard of this great majestic polonaise where the rhythm and tempo seems so right, and consistently so throughout. Horowitz had it paced perfectly,

  • @forgottenbooks And you know they're the devil to play because they're not really scales - they have skips, and because of the layout, the fingering is difficult. And then the second one has one more note at the top. Aaargh! Horowitz's sound like streaks of lightning.

  • his fingers are so longggg

    i'm jealous. :(

  • There are few musical passages ever written that have the same haunting effect as those two scales toward the end.

  • shame the sound quality is so bad

  • what monster technique
