VLADIMIR HOROWITZ 'S comparatively short career has been one of great brilliance. Born in Kiev in 1904, he is, as yet, barely thirty years old. He made his debut in Kharkov at an unhappy time for artists, and touring Russia he gave in Leningrad alone twenty-three concerts, for every one of which all seats were sold. He then gave recitals in almost every continental capital, playing with practically all the famous orchestras. After three years from his first European tour, he sailed to America, leaving a trail of golden criticisms behind him.
London knows him, but not too well, for his appearances here are rare. This, for example, is his first appearance with the B.B.C. Symphony Orchestra, and, since the concert is to be broadcast, his first introduction to the British microphone.
