In 1986, listeners were treated to a remarkable recording by pianist Vladimir Horowitz. This self-titled album showcases a selection of compositions that highlight his extraordinary talent and emotional depth. Recorded digitally for Deutsche Grammophon, it captures every nuance of Horowitz's playing, making it a rewarding experience for classical music enthusiasts.

Among the twelve tracks, one can find the enchanting Träumerei, a piece that embodies a dreamlike quality, allowing listeners to drift into a world of reflection and serenity. Its delicate phrasing demonstrates Horowitz's ability to infuse each note with feeling, a hallmark of his style. Another standout track is the vibrant Soirées de Vienne: Valse-Caprice No. 6, which showcases not only his technical prowess but also the joy and liveliness he brings to his performances. The energy in this waltz captivates, making it a delightful experience for anyone who hears it.

Horowitz’s interpretation of the Impromptu B-dur D 935 No. 3 is equally compelling, offering a glimpse into his ability to blend technical skill with profound emotional expression. Each performance on this album serves as a reminder of why Horowitz is so respected in the world of classical music.
