announcement recording appeared.
Horowitz was to say what "people live." In front of an audience that
has embraced the excitement and expectations what, Horowitz by the
overwhelming virtuosity, the color sense of ever-changing from the
piano, and was was able to bring out the delicate nuances. In that
sense, what Horowitz of "live" is a once-in-a-lifetime chance, to
again be the same song the same way was not be repelled. Columbia and
RCA is, Horowitz is performed as much as possible live recording so as
not to miss the valuable opportunity to open the recital, which was
edited from the sound source has been released as LP with the approval
of the ante-mortem Horowitz. This box set, as well as the "Live at
Carnegie Hall" of the last, these live recording sound source, is what
was recorded in was played in the actual recital order, to remain CD
of non-editing. applause and when Horowitz appeared, between songs
have also been directly reproduced, it is possible to vividly
experience a number of legendary recital of Horowitz at home just,
let's say that once-in-a-lifetime valuable release.
DISC1 ~ 18 is, over the 1966 - 1968, Yale University, the City
University of New York, Washington, Boston, Chicago, the entire
repertoire of nine solo recital, which was held in Philadelphia,
Encore also including Colombia was recorded It is the sound source.
May 9, 1965, hit at a time when Horowitz that was restored by
performing a recital at Carnegie Hall as a "Historic Return" for the
first time in 12 years has resumed in earnest performance activity,
the 40th anniversary of the United States debut in 1968 and such
celebrate, we did was to show off playing survived the fat. Piano
Sonata No. 48 of Haydn in Omagari, Piano Sonata No. 28 of Beethoven,
Schumann kreisleriana, has such Piano Sonata No. 2 of Rachmaninov is
intensively taken up. Recital in Boston of April 7, 1968, because the
Martin Luther King Jr. was carried out in three days after the
assassination, memorial of the message is read aloud at the beginning,
Horowitz is playing the funeral march of Chopin You.
DISC19 ~ 49 is, through 1975 to 1983, the United States and around 16
times solo recital, which was held in London, is the sound source was
recorded even including Angkor RCA. Do not open the concert of the
public over the 1969 five-year sick from autumn, Horowitz, which has
been dedicated to recording, May 12, 1974, and returned to the playing
activity again in solo recital in Cleveland, even better 1975 The year
it was moved to RCA of a full leave Colombia. This later Horowitz will
result in a dared extensive concert tour of since the early 1950s,
around the recital has been live recording by RCA. In Omagari, Piano
Sonata No. 28 of Beethoven, Schumann Piano Sonata No. 3 and
Fumoresuke, list of Piano Sonata, No. 1 Chopin's Ballade No. 4,
Polonaise-Fantaisie, piano of Rachmaninoff Sonata No. 2 such has been
featured turn.
Among noteworthy is, a solo recital was held at the White House of
DISC29, will solo recital was held at London's DISC44 ~ 45. The
former, in 1978 it became the American debut 50 anniversary of
Horowitz, in a live recital of when it was invited to the White House
by President Carter at the time (the first release), this time Carter
"Horowitz is the country's treasure." I was the was sent a generous
praise. The latter, in 1982, the United Kingdom by Prince Charles of
Inishiachivu in what has been live recorded in a charity concert held
in London (and DoO 31 years for Horowitz), partly as a
"Horowitz-in-London" I've been released in LP, is the first time that
recital songs first by RCA recording sound source is on CD. Both are
legendary recital that has been TV broadcast around the world, it was
to enhance the reputation of Horowitz dramatically.
DISC50 is, in 1978, Piano Concerto No. 3 Rachmaninoff who played with
Zubin Mehta led the New York Philharmonic has been recorded. This
performance is TV aired by the NBC network, but there was also that
the video was released in a short period of time DVD, the first time
that the launch of a stereo sound source with RCA recording. It also
will interesting place to compare with the same year in January of
live you have played with the same New York Philharmonic of Eugene
Ormandy conductor as the United States debut in '50 anniversary
performance of Horowitz.
Of LP size all color, in hard cover separate manual over 90 pages,

addressed to the White House, John such as a photograph of the letter
of the draft of Steinway addressed, so far we have been published
valuable materials were not the be published, it will just say that a

Mountain.

"Horowitz is a common press conference and interviews," I is not a
word, I was talking to speak to the audience "in the music. In this
box set, Horowitz us speaks to us in summary "no editing". As a case
in point might be a "Fumoresuke" Schumann and Piano Sonata No. 5 of
Scriabin. RCA will have been released in LP Edit this two songs from
Pasadena and Chicago of live sound source, and the edited version due
to the RCA, and when we compared the non-edited version that is
included in this set, what listeners The difference of them also will
be apparent. The it becomes apparent by comparing them, edited version
(although he them a more or less the same trends other songs) by RCA,
since being edited significantly, with almost saw Wax Horowitz by
Madame Tussauds It is like there, but that. And thoroughly eliminate
the tangle of mistakes and finger By clean, he size and overwhelming
improvisation of dynamic ... range was the biggest feature of the
performance of Horowitz has had been ruined. (...) Live 1966 ~ 1968 by
Columbia is not gap of about RCA recorded was released edited version
and the original unedited version. This will is also a difference in
the producer who worked on sale. Colombia's producer, Thomas Frost,
while was a good co-worker of Horowitz, producer of RCA, Jack
Pfeiffer's was a relationship to say, even with a friend of Horowitz.
"Bernard Horowitz (from the liner notes)

"Renowned pianist, Alfredo Brendel are told. "In the case of live
recording, somewhat incorrect sound, something that rather to increase
the one-time impact of the performance." In this regard, Horowitz of
living is, "I bet the life during the performance. When was only
because my performance is something very clear, playing without a.
Note can be seen in soon as the mistake any nuance, I one sound also
will not make a mistake. But I will not be so. only is perfect, it is
said that he is not perfect. " This time of this box set will be
released from Sony Classical, it's exactly what it was conforming to
this spirit. This until the important addition to recording heritage
was released Horowitz in this 50 pieces of play I would like you to
taste slowly and carefully. "Alan Sutekkura (Ekuzekutivu producer of
this box in Horowitz Estate. Than liner notes)

...but not in stereo. I wish they'd release this separately.

Tell me about it. Somewhere in my apartment I still have the stub from
his last Philadelphia appearance in the spring of 1984. For two minutes -
the Chopin etude in octaves - we got something resembling the old
Horowitz. It begs the question - would you rather pay for two minutes
of Horowitz or two hours of... well, you get the idea.

I went to both the Washington DC constitution hall concerts while I was in college, thanks to Paul Hume who was director of the Georgetown Glee Club at that time. I remember being amazed at the size of the tone he was able to produce without appearing to bang at the keyboard.

Thanks RiRiIII,
I ordered via España. Thanks for the lead. Let's see if they do Amazon USA's usual thing when they misprice a pre-order and send an email saying it's going to take a very long time; do you still want it. I always say yes and then it's sent at the originally-posted price.
Con cariño,

As expected, Amazon.es just cancelled the order due to incorrect pricing...

And unlike what Amazon US would have done, Amazon.es cancelled the 32 euro order. Sigh.

None of it, I should think? These are all professional RCA and CBS recordings, and by 1966 none of that would have been recorded in mono.

The contents is now listed on Amazon uk.

Also you can now see contents of boxes of recordings by Istomin & Wild also on Sony. Anyone care to comment on those?

Istomin was always undervalued, maybe because most of his recordings were of chamber music.

I hope someone at Sony has noticed the gaff on the picture of the box and stopped it from going into production this way:

The Concert and Solo Recordings

Seriously, of all the boxes flooding the market, this is may be one of the best, with many first official CD issues. Indeed, I don't think too many of them even had budget reissues in the LP era. A pity. Particularly notable was the Beethoven 4th with Ormandy that was praised to the skies, maybe a tad excessively, by Harris Goldsmith in High Fidelity upon its first and I think only issue. And just as characteristically, Goldsmith seems almost to have forgotten about it afterwards. He did something very similar with the Weissenberg/Pretre Rach 3 around the same time.

This is worthwhile than the endless dredging of every bottom corner of the Horowitz barrel.
