Horowitz and/or Rubinstein

[amanfang]

I am looking for a recording of any Bach and prelude and fugue by either Horowitz or Rubinstein.  (I am NOT asking you to post it here.)  If you could know of any and could give me recording information, I would like to order it through my local library.  I have looked some, but have been unable to find anything.

Thanks.

Hallo amanfang,

Horowitz's CD recording under the SONY CLASSICAL label is available at CD Universe at
$ 9.98 + Shipping & Handling.  Apart fro the Bach piece, Horowitz plays other Baroque composers as well.

Rubinstein's rare recording under the RCA Victor Label, a CD at $ 11.98 (+ S&H) is obtainable at ArkivMusic, which carries ONLY WESTERN CLASSICAL MUSIC - both CDs & DVDs. Please visit

As for more authentic intepretations -  acknowledged by a majority of Bach lovers - would recommend Richter (who worshipped JSB almost like a God) and Glenn Gould (who could be seen mumbling or talking while playing)

"Am Anfang" in German means "at the Beginning" - the usual first lines describing The Creation. Are you by any chance German?
