"The film captures the clamour of the audience, their raptness, the occasional weeping – most affecting – in Träumerei, and Horowitz’s visit to the Scriabin Museum ... I have to admit some disappointment with the DVD however. You need to search long and hard for the name of the director, who was Brian Large – it’s at the bottom of the box – and there’s no encoding information. Unless you knew Horowitz was talking to Scriabin’s daughter you wouldn’t otherwise know from the unhelpful, pretty non-existent editing. Parts of the interviewing and the Horowitz walkabout are in fact messy and should have been tightened up and properly captioned. The performances captured throughout the film, however, are gigantic in the extreme"
