Thank you, Mr. Nelson, for continuing your mini-podcasts about classical music. They are a welcome spot of joy in these troubled times.

2020-05-25 12:00:42 +0000 UTCHmm, no one in pop comes to mind but I believe it's told in story and song that Horowitz himself was obsessed with Art Tatum, and that in terms of technique and those "string of pearls" runs that Horowitz was famous for Tatum certainly matches him. Here's Tatum's "Tea for Two", the arrangement which allegedly haunted Horowitz. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kACt0FM0Kf8
