i just did a search for "horowitz improvisation" on google to find a video of h's improvisation in italy during the mozart concerto film - look what came up: ...
Hi! In the new Larry Weinstein documentary you can see VH at the funeral procession of Arturo Toscanini. It was broadcast by ARTE a few days ago and will be...
... No, no. It is only Weinstein´s style of mixing documentary and fiction. It is based on Toscanini´s son´s secrectly recorded speech of his father during...
The audio of the complete recital is available from the Reagan Library. As I recall the Scriabin op. 8, no. 12 is particularly powerful. Video is available of...
Well to begin with, Reagan was not in the White house in 1987... Robert Y **This is a cd**Horowitz at the White House-rare 1987 recital $14.99 This is the...
Unless, of course you're questioning the year, which is wrong. It was 1986, in the fall after his return from Moscow. There is no VH @ the WH in 87. ...
But VH in 1986 played Mozart K. 330 in C, not K. 333 in B-flat. ... __________________________________________________________________ Yahoo! Canada Toolbar:...
But in this case not only year is wrong, but also the program information. In the WH-86 recital he did neither play Mozart KV333 nor Schubert Moment Musical or...
Though the website information is misleading (maybe to avoid legal implications?), it seems a great opportunity to acquire the WH recital for all who don't...
is this the video of the encores, or the whole recital? I think parts of it are on youtube........... seems interesting to me, though. Best, Mikhail...
That is Horowitz. It's the 1957 Carmen Fantasy. This was a test recording that was only released in the past 10 years in the RCA "Soloists and Conductors"...

Has anyone in the group ever had a chance to examine the Lawrence Kubie papers in the Library of Congress? Kubie was Horowitz's analyst. Not sure how much (if...

Horowitz played the Schumann Carnaval in his second recital in Paris on March 12, 1926 at the hall of the old conservatory. I have several reports about it. ...

This article - http://www.ajc.com/services/content/printedition/2009/01/04/lefty.html - claims that VH was a leftie. Any truth to that? I've seen photos where...
I have doubts about this as well. In this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zu5TpvC-gqEat 3:42 he can be seen clearing writing (including his signature)...
well, his left hand is pretty sluggish in the Chopin Etude Op. 10/4, so he must be right - handed. He over pedals sections with left hand passage-work in the...
