Horowitz Live and Unedited October 28, 2008

Horowitz Live and Unedited [includes Bonus DVD]
The sound is simply astonishing, as if it were recorded on 21st century equipment instead of forty years ago. If you enjoy classical piano, this is an essential for your collection. Horowitz at his best.

I am a pianist, and a piano teacher, who has admired Horowitz, since my college days in the 80's. I purchased this item, mainly for the DVD, to share with my piano students in a group class, so they will know about the tremendous ability of Horowitz. I was a little disappointed that the DVD was only about ten minutes, and not longer, but greatly enjoyed the CD's with mistakes actually left in! It was fascinating to hear the great Horowitz make a few, mistakes, and encouraging to other pianists, who know that concerts do have mistakes at times-no one's perfect.
Horowitz Plays again in public for first time in 12 years August 24, 2007

This is a MUST for all Horowitz fans. The Horowitz technique is unparalleled, and you must hear him play in front of an audience after 12 years.
I think it is one of his best performances -- maybe because I like the way he played things I've heard at other Horowitz performances.
But, I like all of his music, and a new performance of the same piece is a little different than others -- but all very interesting.

Despite I am not a Horowitz admirer, it 's worthy to underline and emphasize the colossal pianism and thunderous fingering around every one of its different performances.
The special distinction around this album is the fresh inspiration and notable musicality emanated in this Recital, that deserves to be catalogued as a cult recording among the impressive and even excellent live recordings in the Sixties.
A bravura performance and a genuine expression make of this album a very special recommendation.
Masterpieces played by the great Horowitz December 11, 2004

This Carnegie Hall return recital is one of the greatest recordings by Horowitz. With a huge audience, Horowitz did not disappoint. He plays the Bach/Busoni as only he can play; it is eternally beautiful. Schumann has some mistakes, but those mistakes make the playing even more fascinating. The Scriabin is also excellent.
I am confident in saying that Horowitz's mazurka here is the best recording of op. 30 no. 4. Horowitz takes his time and does not rush the tempo, which is soooo easy to do with this piece. The etude is played awesomely, but the real treat is the Ballade no. 1. Horowitz played this piece all his life and played it very different many times, but this ballade is the best, most musical he ever played, mistakes and all.
The encores are also a treat, and the complete Kinderszenen bonus is another reason to buy this cd. The bonus dvd contains Liszt's Au Bord D'une Source, Chopin's Black key etude, and Moszkowski's etude in f major, op. 72, no.6.
This cd is my favorite, and I have a lot...
