Glenn Gould's accounts of the late pieces, recorded in 1960, are among the most affecting statements he made. He manages to balance the music on the edge of an almost unbearable emotional intensity without becoming larmoyant or dipping into salon sentimentality. The result is downright disturbing and depressing. But few pianists have achieved such extraordinary distillations of Brahms's late style as Gould does here, conveying painful passion held in check and peering into the counterpoint, yet maintaining an overall fluidity within profound emotional stasis. The recording is very present.

His last tour brought him to prestigious musical venues (Vienna, Berlin, Hamburg, Tokyo etc) and staged him a glamorous returning in 1986 to his homeland, the former Soviet Union, to perform in Moscow and Leningrad much acclaimed recitals.Here we have the very last studio recording of Horowitz, achieved during his last months in 1989 and comprising works never recorded by him before : Haydn - Sonata in E flat major, Chopin - Fantasie-Impromptu op.66, Etudes op.25 nos. 1 & 5, Nocturnes op.55 no.2 & op.62 no.1, Mazurka op.56 no.3, Liszt - Weinen, Klagen, Sorgen, Zagen and Wagner/Liszt - Isolde's Liebestod. As Murray Perahia remarks in the liner notes, "we get something very personal, as if he was distilling the essence" of music he performed, so that one can sense in the late Horowitz style a kind of wise temperance, an equilibrium finally achieved. The most important feature of these last recordings is the need of conveying deep feelings in a serene manner, with the whole wisdom acquired in a life at the piano. The vivid and precise finger-work, though less spectacular than decades ago, carry now the calm memory of his inner turmoil, his pacified passions and contradictions, his pleasure to play. Horowitz's serenity "sounds" wonderful in these valedictory accounts.For all Horowitz aficionados a genuine must!Horowitz*, Chopin* · Haydn* · Liszt* · Wagner* – The Last RecordingLabel: Sony Classical – SK 45818Format: CDCountry: USReleased: 1990Genre: ClassicalStyle: Classical, RomanticPiano Sonata, Hob.
