Vladimir Horowitz


”Never be afraid to dare.”

Look at the beautiful beautiful child smiling! (00:36)
And, at the end, a shy yet great gesture, as a ”well, that’s it”


In between was this:

”I must tell you I take terrible risks. Because my playing is very clear, when I make a mistake you hear it. If you want me to play only the notes without any specific dynamics, I will never make one mistake. Never be afraid to dare.”

”My future is in my past and my past is my present.
I must now make the present my future.”
