After a few years' rest and some at-home unofficial rehabilitation Horowitz was ready to begin performing again. Horowitz recorded the material on this production in his own living room. We see a rejuvenated, different Horowitz, someone in much more control than in the 1982 and 1983 recitals. The only thing lacking in Horowitz’s performance from this point on was preparation, Horowitz admittedly did not practice very much and it shows. The film was awarded with two Emmy Awards in the category Outstanding Classical Program in the Performing Arts: Peter Gelb (executive producer), Susan Frömke (producer), Vladimir Horowitz (star) and in the category Outstanding Individual Achievement – Classical Music/Dance Programming Directing: Albert Maysles, David Maysles.
