Prokofiev toccata, early horowitz recording
on: March 25, 2005, 10:04:51 PM
I just found an early recording of the toccata played by Horowitz on Karadar. I think it is from the CD entitled CD Legenden - Die Pianisten - Vladimir Horowitz (Aufnahmen 1930-1935). He plays it in 3'35''. It is of pretty poor recording quality. What do you all think about it?

Argerich is better. There's a subtle rhythmic vitality to her playing of this piece...
