Horowitz - Live in Vienna (1987)

1 reactiom: who let old man on piano
2 reactiob: ok damn its horowitz

Vergognose pubblicità, vergognoso

A complete masterly performance

A great recording

An amazing beauty and clarity of ths beauty from Wolfgang.

Stop it. :)

He’s funny

The intonation kinda drives me crazy. But not really. Masterful.

Horowitz is utterly brilliant but he has a very strange technique of keeping his wrists down. I’ve not seen that before. Doesn’t affect his performance in any way of course .

Er ist 84 bei diesem Konzert!

첫 번째 곡 박수가 빨라서 마지막 음 여운이 끊겼잖아 못 맞출 거면 눈치 보고 따라쳐 Ai도아니고

Horowitz is 84 years old in this recital, and sadly passed away two years later. Incredible he still managed to achieve this level of playing, with legendary performances such as the Schubert Impromptu. An absolute piano god.

That Schubert Impromptu was utterly beautiful. I've never heard a better performance. His touch, intonation, and mastery of dynamics are sublime.

Die Zauberei kommt durch Erfahrung, Wissen, Training, Liebe zur Musik, zu dem Instrument und natürlich auch großes Talent. Dazu Lebenserfahrung. Er hatte alles! Ein Genuss wie er schattiert! Er macht die Musik zur bildenden und darstellenden Kunst!

what is the name of the piece at 25 minutes?

Horrowitz has probably the most unique technique of any accomplished pianist I've seen.

I think my literal day one piano lesson was to keep my wrists above the keys. Horrowitz here drops his wrists below the keys, and plays with flat fingers. By all accounts, he shouldn't be able to play such complex music or breathe so much life into it.

Really incredible to see.

Horrowitz is definitely a favorite for Mozart.

I had the honor of my life at the Grammy Awards in the '80s, when Maestro Horowitz was presented with a Lifetime Achievement Award at Radio City Music Hall in New York. I greeted him at his limousine and shepherded him and his wife to the dressing room, where we sat for thirty minutes and chatted like old friends about Scarlatti and other composers. I'll never be the same. He was gentle, kind, and funny. What a moment, what a gift!

He was a miracle!!! ❤

GOLD! All the way! 🌹🍀☀ He was a great poet!

Горовец чудо потрясающее и очаровательнейшее.Такой дар был, а может бы еще все-таки где-то есть?

Faut quand même reconnaître qu'avant de jouer, il fait bien son cinéma, et ça ne manque pas d'avoir de l'effet sur les Viennois. Tout compte fait, il me donne l'impression d'un vieux singe ! Bonne prise de vue mais le son n'est pas excellent.

“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” - John 3:16 God bless everyone here. Jesus loves you and died for you on the cross. He did this to wash away the burden of sins, and if you open your heart to Him, He can take away the burden of your sins and give you a peace incomparable to anything in this world. ✝✝🙏

Over 30 years after this live performance Vladimir Horowitz brought joy into my life.

Thank you for uploading. Horowitz is a favorite musician.

彼のようなピアニストは彼だけです!!!!!😍

Vladimir Horowitz fue siempre un titán entre los legendarios pianistas del Siglo XX tales como los rusos Emil Gilels, Sviatoslav Richter, Lazar Berman, y otros como Arthur Rubinstein, Cláudio Arrau, Alfred Brendel, Nikita Magalof, Vladimir Ashkenasy además de otros excelentes pianistas, no se hable del excepcional György Zciffra...GRACIAS!!! por compartir esta bellísima y única grabación de este excelente pianista polaco interprete excepcional de CHOPIN.. SALUDOS! Desde MÉXICO.

I cried... and came back.......

❤👍👏👏👏👏👏
Interpetra Chopin como nenhum outro!!!

It sounds like ring ring from soul . It is very beautiful and fascinating.

Absolutely sublime.

This music heals the body and soul, that is for sure. But it is not certain whether he is playing at the local health community centre or at a concert hall. There's so much coughing, one can't say for sure. I hope they are all healed after listening to the concert.

On top of his perfect technique, he had the ability to touch peoples' souls with his unique musicality and interpretative skill.

He made the music hover in the air over the instrument.

This wonderful musician deserves much more respect and deference than that afforded by the people who apparently go to concerts, obviously afflicted with pulmonary conditions or diseases which necessitate the need consistently to cough in order to clear the lungs. Or maybe throat afflictions which prevent the suppression of coughs. Or maybe just a common cold, Or maybe just the desire, in the knowledge that the performance will be recorded, to be able to announce to the world that "that was me coughing". It appears that at every event which requires a degree of silence, be it a courtroom or a concert hall, at least one cougher makes his/her presence known. What's the answer? Who knows?

❣

BRAVO!!!

Is it really true that Horowitz is in his mid to late 80's! during this amazing performance ?!??🤔😯

Without question the greatest piano recital in history.

When you can really feel the composer. Such a great interpretation.

I truly hope that, some glorious day, artificial intelligence would be able to clean all beautiful recitals such as this from all the fucking coughing.

THE AUDIENCE STARTED CLAPPING BEFORE HOROWITZ EVEN FINISHED THE FINAL ENCORE

At 84 years of age, this man was still doing what he did best. Astounding.
