Free Music Notes for Horowitz in Hamburg: The Last ConcertFree Music Review: THE LONG GOODBYE
This disc is not just the record of a recital, it is the record of a major musical event. Horowitz did not intend this concert to be his last, but his last it proved to be, the final curtain on an amazing career. He was something special, and for reasons that were entirely musical, but I'm not sure that the descriptions I have read of his playing quite give the true flavour of it. In terms of sheer virtuosity he was certainly as astonishing as we are often told, but even at his peak he was not actually quite the equal of Cziffra in that respect. Late in his career he compared himself modestly as a technician with a number of younger keyboard tigers, saying that they could play more accurately but ten minutes of listening to them was enough. `At least I sound different' said he. Indeed. He did it his way.
