The famous Russian virtuoso in rehearsal and performance for a recording of Mozart's Piano Concerto
No 23 in A (K 488) with the Orchestra of La Scala, Milan conducted by Carlo Maria Giulini
Horowitz to wife: 'Wanda, I am the oldest of all the people here!'
A cine-verite documentary filmed earlier this year when Vladimir Horowitz was persuaded for the first time in his life to record a Mozart Concerto. It took place in a Milan recording studio with Deutsche Grammophon producer THOMAS FROST.
Horowitz has been celebrated for his flamboyance and sensitivity in the Romantic repertoire for the last six decades. This is a unique opportunity to observe the last pianist in the pre-war Russian tradition interpreting a masterpiece of the classical piano repertoire. Producers SUSAN FROEMKE and PETER GELB
