Editorial Review:
Amazon.com essential recording:
Along with the extramusical significance of the aged Horowitz's return to his erstwhile homeland, there's plenty here for seekers of the essential Horowitz. Perhaps his finest Mozart recording, the C-major Sonata, gets a forward-moving reading distinguished by an Andante Cantabile movement that sings the music with the tonal splendor and command of line characteristic of the beloved bel canto singers of the past whom Horowitz looked to as musical models. The program's remainder is as formidable, and only a curmudgeon could fail to smile with delight at a favorite Horowitz encore, Rachmaninoff's Polka de W.R. --Dan Davis

I decided to add my post and describe my impressions, since I was there at the Great Hall of Moscow Conservatory and listened to Horowitz on April 20, 1986. I could not imagine that after some 20 years I would write these lines on the amazon.com.
May I at once say that there has never been a cult of Horowitz in this country. Our own cult figures, Richter and Gilels, were very critical of him, and our piano teachers advised against imitating Horowitz and blamed his taste. Local pianophils had ... Read More

Horowitz wouldn't know musical phrasing if you put a gun to his head. If you just like to hear shapeless pounding on the keyboard, however, this disc is for you. If not, there are tons of worthwhile alternatives.

The powerful fingering of Vladimir Horowitz was his greatest personal landmark, well apart of other lavish gifts and skills. The artistic closeness with Arturo Toscanini, Fritz Reiner, Anal Dorati or Dmitri Mitropulos (or Paul van Kempen and De Sabata on the other side of the ocean), for instance based on a sharp way to conceive, feel and interpret the music, literally shocked and even molded an approach featured by grasping expansiveness of sound, a rough timber, rediscovering the sonorous ...

This profoundly beautiful recording was made in 1986, when Horowitz was 82. This was his first visit since he had left his homeland at the age of 22. The recording itself will make you cry, and when you read the CD insert, written masterfully by Charles Kuralt, of CBS News, you will cry some more. Mr. Kuralt speaks of Horowitz's life away from his homeland and his return. Many touching pictures of Horowitz with his wife, family, and music students enhance Mr. Kuralt's write up.

I have a couple of hundred classical CDs, and like most of them. But this is the one I play the most. It mixes familiar piano works with others that were entirely new to me.
The concert was held during Horowitz's first return to Moscow, and the emotion of both artist and audience seem audible. Anyhow, the playing is inspired.
