Brano wagneriano, l'introduzione..... Chopin caput del romanticismo. E Horowitz insuperabile.

Is he carrying his piano with him

[@atlantargh]

I take it this was taped on a cassette recorder? Not bad sonics. Thanks for posting.

The piano was made before Steinway had a son

Not true. It's just the old block letter Steinway logo. The piano was CD186, built in the 1960s and used by Horowitz from 1965-1972. You can read more about Horowitz's pianos here: hankdrake.blogspot.com/2016/05/the-pianos-of-vladimir-horowitz.html
