Gould’s Scriabin 3 is actually really good. Horowitz played Rach son 2 amazingly, imo.
Gould
-Mendelssohn - Songs without Words (probably the worst recording of the works ever)
-Some of the Mozart Sonatas are famously awful
-Brandenburg 5 (the rare piano recording)
-Harpsichord recordings
-Lots moer
Rachmaninov
-Schubert Impromptu A Flat
-Chopin Ballade 3 (sloppy)
Barere
-All his Scriabin
Horowitz
-Chopin 10/4
-Islamey
-Both Brahms Concerti (terrible)
-Too much to list
Give me ONE example for each (and don’t cop out by naming stuff from his LATE period, we all know his playing was on the decline).
You are a strange, miserable, freaky scary little man…
That is one of the most exciting recordings of Bach I’ve ever heard. NOBODY plays the 5 movement as quickly or as cleanly. And the rest is just as good.
well actually, I think Horowitz did put out one particularly bad Rach2nd snoata recording, it’s on Sony i think (i gotta verify)
But the one from Boston Symphony Hall is phenonmenal (besides the non-commercially available Toronto performance)
Anyway, i really hope you are just talking about the bad recording of the rach2nd son he put out (along with the one in London)
