Horowitz In Moscow
Vladimir Horowitz, one of the greatest pianists of the 20th century, is captured here in performances of Scarlatti sonatas alongside works from the Classical and Romantic periods. His technique is phenomenal—the clarity, control, and subtle shadings evident in every phrase—but what distinguishes Horowitz is how he combines virtuosity with profound musicality. He shapes each work with the sensitivity of a chamber musician; his Scarlatti is crystalline, his Romantic works deeply expressive. This video documentation allows you to observe his physical approach to the keyboard and the complete commitment he brings to every moment. Essential viewing for anyone serious about piano music or interested in how one of the century's greatest artists approached the standard repertoire.
