Описание: Horowitz - the very name brings to mind a grand piano, rich piano sound and pianistic art at the highest level. One of the most important pianists of all time, Vladimir Horowitz left a large number of recordings of his piano arrangements of well-known works after his death in New York in 1989. In addition, there is a previously unknown collection of his own compositions, which Schott is publishing for the first time in the new series The Horowitz Edition. The edition makes accessible a treasure that has not been freely available until now and emphasizes the musical genius of Vladimir Horowitz. Besetzung:pianoop. 14
