tips on opus 25/6 chop etude?

well apparently u didn’t read the right one, Horowitz played all 24 Chopin etudes and have all beethoven sonata in his mind before he even left the Conservatory.

i believe he didn’t have all beethoven sonatas in hiz mind until he asked fo study with Cortot and Cortot told him to play da Beethoven sonatas and :ho: callz on him a week latah and sez “i can play everything 'cept fo dis trill in hammerklavier”

could be wrong though…

wrong, vlad could play em all

da Ho met da corpze in Switz when he waz around 25 yrz old. at that tym, da Ho cud play all da bratha sons. He just asked da corpze for a suggestion in da thrill partz in hammahklaviah b/c he got stuck with it. As it turned out, a veek latah he complained he didn’t learn shit from da corpze, even though da corpze illustrated it to da ho, but da ho felt like da corpze waz ztill holding back zum secret. da Ho alzo wanted to learn da SS etude from da corpze, but da corzpe, being a prick, didn’t teach da ho properly of how to unleash it. da book didn’t zay this part, but da kritty azzume within dat 1 week, da ho waz practicing following da corpze zuggeztion. Howevah, da rezult iz apparently ztill sheeyat. datz y he complained it. da Ho started to dizz da corpze starting from that time period i think.

:ho:

dayum, cortot could figure something out about tech that horo couldnt??? dayum, i now have even more respect for the guy…

all istill dun blieve he knew all da chopets. I believe it is in da schoenberg biography that says horo said he could not bother himself to learn all da chopets…

Well, da Ho waz juzt 25 back then, whereaz da corpze waz almost ready to ztay in da coffin. da Ho cud ztill develop his genzui tech. :ho:

Nope, one of his pupils witnezzed da event. Thus, da claim stated by da ho himself “I can’t play 10-1, 10-2, 10-7 and 25-6” iz falze. he juzt dizzed himzelf for no good reazon.

haha da :ho:

he tried to learn godowskys passacaglia and gave up. tru?

:ho: “this sheeyat need at least 6 hands”

one big problem ov da Ho iz dat he’s way too lazy. he cud haff expanded his rep had he invested more time practicing on da 88.

da Ho admittedly said i nevah practiced more dan 3 hrs a day. on one occazion, da ho somewhat said to wanda like this "did I practice 2 or 3 hrz today?

Wanda :“you only sit there for 45 mins”.

:ho:
