CD Reviews

The master, in his element

pspa | Boston, MA USA | 03/26/2001

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Other than Rubinstein, there is no greater Chopin interpreter than Horowitz, and in his single greatest work -- the second sonata which is the highlight of this disc -- I find Horowitz preferable because Rubinstein takes the great funeral march of the third movement too slowly, whereas Horowitz' direct approach conveys an even deeper sense of melancholy and tragedy. That said, this is a superb sampling of Horowitz' art, even better than the first volume of this series, with unworldly playing and fine sound quality for an analogue recording. The second sonata is second to none, and the shorter pieces are all very familiar and superbly played."
