A Chronological Index of Released & Unreleased Recordings: 1926-1968
Prepared and Compiled by Christian Johansson and Bernie Horowitz

The Recording Index on this website is an attempt to catalogue all surviving recordings of Horowitz. The index consists of two separate sections - one by composer -- the Alphabetical Section -- and another which lists the recordings in chronological order which is called the Chronological Section (separated into three categories, interviews, studio and live, and then all presented together). I have been more generous with discographical info in the Chronological Section as such would take up a lot of space in the section by composer and thus disturb the flow and readability of the page, but on the other hand the section by composer generally has more detailed info on specific recording dates and number of takes from commercial recording sessions where several takes recorded days - sometimes months - apart were used for the commercial release of a work. This is to reduce the number of notes & references to other sessions in the chronological section to a minimum.

The index as a whole aims to be as complete as possible, but even more importantly 100% accurate & reliable, and to achieve this I have used the following template when creating the index:

-  First of all I have only included recordings I am sure exist as I have a copy myself of the recording, or know someone trustworthy who does. I have not listed any recordings based on rumours alone.

-  Material from commercial recording sessions have been catalogued through the recording logs for the sessions, and through help from people with access to the actual tapes or discs in cases when the information given in the logs has been inadequate.

-  All dates and locations are given as they are known to me through my sources or through the fruits of my research. I have not made any guesses myself, and I have decided to leave assumptions to the reader.

-  Fragments of works from rehearsals, warm-ups, private sessions and similiar have been deemed irrelevant for the discography and have not been included. Notes relating to a few which might be of particular interest to collectors can be found in the Appendix at the end of the page.

All commercially released recordings are written in black and have a reference to the label & catalogue number of the issue in the alphabetical section. When recordings have appeared in more than one commercial issue only one catalogue number has been quoted (there are a few overlaps though as all commercial items included in the index have been listed in completion) - generally to the best, most recent, or most accessible release. All catalogue numbers refer to a CD release unless other is stated.

Material that has never appeared in any commercial release is written in grey, and have an indication in bold text to the type of the recording. There are seven kinds of commercially unreleased recordings, a description of each follows below.

Unreleased Recordings
These are recordings which were professionally recorded by Horowitz's record company at the time, but which have for some reason not been released. In most cases they have remained unreleased because Horowitz was dissatisfied with the recording and did not approve it for commercial release (and he was very picky), or (especially in the early recordings) because the recording engineer was dissatisfied with the technical quality of the recording and did not approve it for release. (Yes, both the artist's and the engineer's approval were required before a recording could be released.) Fortunately most, though not all, of these recordings are preserved in the vaults of the record company responsible for them, and we can only hope as many of them as possible will be released in due time now when they're not controlled as tightly by Horowitz or The Horowitz Estate anymore. The best way of pushing for this is to buy Horowitz's CDs and DVDs to show that there is a public interest in Horowitz's recordings and to provide funds for further releases.

Copying and ripping commercial CDs is *NOT* to support the record companies!!

Private Recordings
Somewhere duing the winter of 1944/1945 Horowitz signed a contract with Carnegie Hall's Recording Service to record his recitals there. The recitals were recorded completely, including encores, and pressed on LPs for Horowitz, who used them to study and analyze his playing. All Horowitz's recitals in Carnegie Hall except one were recorded between March 1945 and March 1951 when RCA took over instead. These are nowadays known as the "Yale Recitals" as Horowitz donated them to Yale University during the 1980s where they are still stored. In the past two years, more selected releases have followed. However, with the exception of March 5, 1951, the complete concerts remain unreleased and are referred to as Private Recordings in this index.

Radio Broadcasts or TV Broadcasts
These are recordings which have been recorded by radio and TV stations and are now preserved in their archives and/or on VHS or audio cassette tapes recorded from the broadcast by amateurs.

Amateur Acetates
From the 1930s and onwards it was actually possible to make private home recordings on a machine which could record a few minutes of sound on discs called acetates. These machines were very rare, did not produce recordings of particularly high quality, and probably cost a fortune in their day, but a young lady in Chicago on very good terms with Horowitz, Rachmaninoff, Kreisler, Cherkassky, Toscanini and a whole horde of other artists had access to one and used to recorded them in small mini-recitals for a set of a invited friends in her living room which she liked to arrange. So far, this lady's acetates are the only known ones with Horowitz.

Pirate Recordings
A pirate recording is a recording made by some innocent looking guy in the audience armed with a microphone, secretly and illegally recording the performance. To the best of my knowledge the first recordings of this kind started to appear in the New York area during the spring of 1965 (the first known pirate with Horowitz was recorded in New Haven on November 13, 1966), and then increased in number up to the early 1970s when tape recorders had become so small and so cheap that just about anyone could afford the equipment needed to tape a concert without any greater risk of being discovered. There are actually also a few video pirate recordings from the 1980s, made by someone who has managed to smuggle in a videocamera in the hall and have been brave enough to film from his seat, probably with a Bible in his free hand praying that no one will look his way.

Pirate Recordings vary from case to case in soundquality, from "quite good" all the way down to "only barely listenable" depending on which type of microphone and taperecorder that was used, the medium the recording was preserved on (always open reel tapes or cassettes in Horowitz's case, but of variable qualities & brands), where the microphone was placed during the recording, and how far from the stage the pirate was sitting. And of course also how many generations away from the mastertape the copy one has is as all of these have been passed around in analogue formats before CD burners were available & affordable to the average person.

A few pirate recordings have been released on CD by Palexa, Music & Arts and Living Stage, but most of them remain unavailable and only exist in private collections of tape collectors and fervent Horowitz enthusiasts.

Bootlegs
A bootleg is defined here as a professional recording that was made without permission from or even knowledge of Horowitz, his agent/manager, or his record company.

* One source claims that this recording was released, and the October 11 recording is the unreleased one. As if that wasn't enough, EMI themselves say that the commercially issued version of both the Nocturne and Impromptu were actually recorded on October 11 1935, which doesn't exactly make things easier! No documents supporting any recording session at all on October 11, 1935 have been found though, and I think both these claims are errors. As far as I can tell, the actual date of the released recording is October 11, 1951 - just as Jon Samuels' stated in his discography - and there were no recordings made at all on October 11, 1935.

    * According to an article by Jack Pfeiffer ("Manhattan Holiday" - High Fidelity, October 1957) these recordings were made over 4 sessions early in 1955 and not on May 9 & 14, 1956 as generally believed. The finished product of these sessions was released in the fall of 1956, and there are production sheets for the Scriabin LP dated May 9 & May 14 1956 so at some stage it seems as if someone mistook the production sheets for recording logs and therefore dated these recordings erroneously to May 9 & 14, 1956. Recording logs are generated at the beginning of the recording process, when the music is captured on tape. Production sheets were typed at the end of the recording process, after the music had been recorded, the artwork selected, and the notes written - just prior to the actual release date of a new recording.

A huge thanks to Robert McAlear for this info.

·        Beethoven:  First movement from the Sonata in C-sharp minor, Op.27 No.2 (Moonlight)*

    * This recording has caused me some headache, but here's what I believe was its reason and fate:

Horowitz recorded the entire Sonata on June 5, and approved it for commercial release. Later that summer he had second thoughts about the tempo in the first movement, and decided - much to the frustration of RCA's recording team who had to drag everything back to Horowitz's appartment - that it needed to be re-recorded if he was to approve the release of the album. He did so somewhere in October the same year, but only the first movement, and to the best of my knowledge the first movement from the June session remains unreleased.

Many thanks to Hank Drake for helping me sort everything out with this troublesome recording!
