Free Music Notes for Horowitz in Moscow
Free Music Review: Incredible! (May I give it 10 stars?)
Hit: 5 Stars
So many superlatives swirl in my head as I attempt to compose this review. On this outstanding recording, Horowitz plays alternately as if he were straight from paradise, then as if he were the devil himself. Such command of his instrument! and one that can only come from a true virtuoso. My favorite piece is track #6 (Scriabin etude), each time I listen to it I find it nearly impossible to restrain myself from leaping out of my seat and shouting,"Bravo!!!!!" with the rest of the audience at its finish. Surrender yourself to this incomparable CD - you'll never be the same again.Free Music Review: Oh, God...5 stars would be simply unfair...
Hit: 5 Stars
Upon hearing this record for the first time, I had to pinch myself to make sure I was actually listening to such an amazing, if not perfect display of talent and beauty. After having listened to it over and over again along the years, maybe more than 1000 times, I still find it hard to believe that the guy was even a human being. The only fair review for such a record would be a wordless one: nothing I can write or say would do justice to the rich, almost infinte world of emotions, thoughts and colors he's able to convey through his playing. 20 stars. ;-)Free Music Review: An auditory treasure!
Hit: 5 Stars
I bought the DVD of this concert, and decided to purchase the CD as well. It is a glorious, sumptuous auditory delight to listen to. Mr. Horowitz never, ever lost his incredible piano playing ability. It was a truly magnificent gift he had which gave (and still gives) so much pleasure to those who like classical music. Highly recommended to all who enjoy hearing this "master of the keyboard", and particularly those who enjoy listening to Mr. Horowitz' playing.Free Music Review: NatchezBelle
Hit: 5 Stars
What's not to love about the maestro and his exuberant performance in Moscow, and those in attendence did not hold back either. My classical library is woefully slim, but I feel I have a jewel of a recording. The product itself could not have been better packaged with a lengthy booklet and beefy disc that's all European in nature. I'm proud to own this slice of history and music.Free Music Review: Wow, never again.
Hit: 5 Stars
The historic overtones of the event and the selections are wonderful. But, the talent of this man at this time in his life is absolutely unforgetable. Such power and grace and timing and touch! This performance would impress anyone. Read the performance notes by Charles Kuralt (that were included with the tape version), if they are included with the CD.
