A 1924 Horowitz Review
on: July 15, 2015, 03:15:17 PM
Hi Everyone,

Hope you're all having a wonderful summer. The Georgian pianist Marina Mdivani has come across an early review of three concerts Horowitz gave in Tiflis (now Tbilisi), 1924. Mdivani sent me the text, as well as a signed photograph that was given to the reviewer, A.S. Petrokovsky.

Interesting.

The link you gave doesn't work, though. People may find the article here:
