    Though it was advertised as a live recording, the original LP release of the recital included a number of unacknowledged edits to correct errors and imperfections in Horowitz's playing. While Horowitz, himself, said in later years that his greatest performances were never note perfect, he apparently couldn't resist having the recording doctored. Those edits have always been the subject of controversy, especially since every aspect of the performance seemed engraved on the memories of those present at the historical concert. Sony Classical's new edition of the live recording returrns for the first time to the original, unexpurgated source to restore the pure spontaneity and brillance of Horowitz's playing - mistake and all - on that memorable afternoon.

    Vladimir Horowitz returned to the concert stage yesterday to touch off a sustained ovation in one of the most dramatic events in recent musical history. From his first appearance on the stage of Carnegie Hall after an absence of 12 years, until half an hour after he had finished the concert, the auditorium echoed to "bravo" as the audience rose to its feet again and again. The audience for the slender, slightly stooped artist was not only large and enthusiastic, but also strongly representative of all phases of the musical world. This was an international gathering, with French, Italian and German heard frequently during the intermission. For a time it seemed that the audience would refuse to leave altogether. The house lights were turned on after four encores. But the music lovers stood firm, applauding and yelling. Then the stage lights were turned off. On the dim stage Mr. Horowitz took the last of at least a dozen bows. Finally, the piano was shut, while loud groans came from the audience. And even a half hour after this, hundreds were milling in West 56th street at the rear of Carnegie Hall, ready to give more chears to Mr. Horowitz.

    The Day After The Recital, May 10, 1965
    Murray Schumach


    Vladimir Horowitz's May 9, 1965 Carnegie Hall return marked the legendary virtuoso's first recital following a 12-year absence from playing in public. Columbia Masterworks recorded the concert, and the resulting album became an instant classic. The present reissue differs from past incarnations in that for the first time we hear the concert remixed from original three-track tapes, with no editing whatsoever. Previous releases include post-production edits and inserts not generally acknowledged at the time. Horowitz, for instance, remade the coda to the central movement of Schumann's C major Fantasy. According to Horowitz, heat from the stage lights caused perspiration to fall into his eyes at a moment when he needed to see the keyboard, resulting in a momentary stumble. Other finger slips and wrong notes were left intact, although astute listeners might have noticed occasional ambient changes masking nips and tucks (notably at 5:57 in the Bach-Busoni Toccata, where Horowitz originally struck a particularly exposed wrong chord). The bottom line is that Horowitz's corrections were cosmetic, not interpretive in nature, and thus easily justifiable. By the same token, the unedited "Historic Return" does not tarnish Horowitz's reputation one iota. And the aforementioned Schumann boo-boo, by the way, ranks hardly a blip on the disaster radar. For repeated listening, however, I agree with Horowitz's decision. In any event, it's the music that counts, and every Horowitz fan should know these recordings, edited or not.
    Some listeners may find Horowitz's conception of the Schumann Fantasy more sectionalized and detail-oriented than the flowing, symphonic game plan of, say, Pollini, Arrau, Fiorentino, or Perahia. Others might be bothered by the Bach/Busoni's first-movement tempo gearshifts (I'm reminded of my colleague Harris Goldsmith's priceless epithet: "Bach-maninov!"), although the central Adagio's hushed aura and melting legato makes time stand still.
    No stylistic issues bear upon Horowitz's utterly internalized and soul-bearing Scriabin, and if Chopin's G minor Ballade leaves an unsettled taste, the Mazurka and Etude sing and soar. The Debussy is more relaxed and limpid than the pianist's earlier recordings of this favorite encore, and if the Moskowski A-flat Etude's ticklish scales don't make you smile, than what will? Horowitz closes with his signature Schumann Träumerei. Its 1962 studio counterpart is included within the complete Kinderszenen that fills out Disc 2. Given that Sony also re-released this performance to celebrate the pianist's centenary, its inclusion here makes little A&R sense. Couldn't the label instead have unearthed some interesting, unreleased material from rehearsal tapes made prior to the concert?
