  • @cubanbach I am 60 years old. my parents found it cheaper to buy me a ticket for a concert than pay a baby sitter. This is in 1952 in Kansas City. they took me to a Horowitz concert. My mother was a beauty and a dresser. I had golden ringlets. they let us backstage afterwards. I still recall it so clearly. I was 3. It was like meeting Jesus. I had been so moved by the music. It was perfect. I felt this at 3. the dressing room was tiny but his personality made it huge. i was shy and this pleased

  • @cubanbach That is awesome. You even wrote the comment as if it were to be published in the book. But that is awesome.

  • ..Horowitz admitted later he was terrified of his father in law, Toscanini...and that he thought the performances of this and his Brahms with Toscanini were too muscular, too fast--but this is how he had to play them under Toscanini.....he was forced to perform in a way he did not think appropriate. Course, if he didn't, Toscanini would have ordered another pianist.....I'll take anything under Toscanini, anytime, after his interpretations, you do not need any others, and others seem weak

  • toscanini delated one bar??horowitz played one more octvues at last???

  • A friend of mine just gave me this album....

  • What I would give to be able to see this concert live...

  • @Anton77bln seriously... he's freaking awesome who cares? He was so nice too. He was the cutest old man.

  • @lolitaeviston Justin Bieber )_)

  • @lolitaeviston Woah, not creepy at all...I feel the same thing about Beethoven, Bach, Mozart, Mahler...I mean...they were way dead before I was born...so I can relate. And really there is no one at all, in THAT league anyway, at this time. Sure there are great performers now...the only one that I think could be close to that is LEONTYNE PRICE...to me she is someone that IF I ever met her, my words would get stuck in my throat and I might faint. I met Jessye Norman and I couldn't speak!
