      Winner of a video, I been tryin to find out about "who is the best jazz pianist today?" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you heard people talk about - Poneyton Introductory Preeminence - (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now ) ? It is a good one off product for discovering how to master the piano minus the hard work. Ive heard some amazing things about it and my co-worker got excellent results with it.

    I’m a retired professional photographer and Steinway was a client. I photographed the unveiling of Horowitz’s portrait in Steinway Hall by Wanda Toscanini Horowitz. After the program ended, I was allowed to play a few chords on one of Horowitz’s pianos. A chilling experience.

    I have seen Vladimir Horowitz perform many times during my lifetime. I can tell you that Mr. Horowitz was exceptionally pleased with his own performance of Chopin's Opus No. 53 here. Whenever Mr. Horowitz has a solemn expression during a performance but, after the close, exhales his breath, in almost an exaggerated manner, and then smiles, that's a classic "tell" that he was satisfied that he gave his best possible performance.

    80+ year old man playing with such intensity. Hallelujah ‼️
    I encountered an excellent piano teacher, unfortunately, too late. He gave me this piano piece. I was in my junior year of veterinary medicine by then. I worked on it despite the killer academic load.
    I was able to play it in its entirety a couple of times but boy, did it absolutely kill my hands, arms, neck and upper back.
    This is a man's piece. I have never heard a woman really play this optimally, with the requisite intensity.
    I had to give it up during my senior year. Not enough time for both activities, not enough energy.
    My next door neighbor, who was a guitar instructor, told my mother that he got goosebumps everytime he heard me practising it .
    I would have persisted a bit more if my Mom told me that SOONER. Instead of more than a decade later.😑

    His fingering is absolutely perfect. How his finger strikes the key determines the tone of the string. Tonal quality varies with touch. Vladimir sets the gold standard for all pianists. Hearing this Chopin’s jaw would drop.

      My college piano teacher retaught me the flat fingered finger technique favored among many Eastern European pianists and I do believe it allows you to have a much more tonally variable performance and has other aspects in which it trumps the common style. The curved finger approach in my opinion is really suited more for women and children and probably is only so much more dominant because women and children are a bigger part historically of the market for music lessons.

      It’s a feature of Russian technique, the key is struck with the fleshier part of the finger away from the tip and the wrist carries the movement through to full depression of the key, seems to work for Mr H, even in old age he could produce clarity, complexity and weight of tone which was nothing short of magnificent, and all achieved with apparent economy of movement and gesture.

    Perfection. Love the mountains of sounds Horowitz could create along with his spontaneity and bold manner. This is playing cultivated in an era when music and artistic individuality truly mattered. Note his subtle and artful use of legato. If you haven’t yet noticed, this is a long lost art. Barely anyone can do that any longer and when they try the results are so obvious and in your face that they are jarring and unmusical. In other words, if you can’t do it and do it very well, please don’t.

    There will never be another, Vladimir Horowitz! I love his interpretations of so many pieces. He makes it look effortless like he’s barely moving his fingers his wrists down his fingers flat. And even at this age he doesn’t miss a note or phrase. His technique and his sound, the play of soft and loud like a painting. Chiaroscuro (the play on light and dark). Nobody does it better than Horowitz.

      Piano ability is rarely lost in age especially when one plays to become a virtuoso like Horowitz. Since piano technique is based on relaxation during the pianissimo he lets the curve on his fingers half collapse which takes incredible finger independence and strength since a half collapsed finger which is good technique as it limits the amount of finger strength placed upon the note adding dynamics which gives the pianissimo its beautiful sombre quietness he’s a piano genius
