The legendary pianist Vladimir Horowitz chose to leave his papers to Yale upon his death in 1989. Today, Yale honors his legacy through the Horowitz Piano ...


Vladimir Samoylovich Horowitz (; October 1 [O.S. September 18] 1903 – November 5, 1989)[1] was a Russian-born American classical pianist and composer.[2] He was known for his technique, use of tone color, and the excitement generated by his playing.[3] He is thought of as one of the greatest pianists of all time.[4][5]

 Horowwitz plays the Rachmaninov 3rd Piano Concerto in Avery Fisher Hall, New York, 1978 with Zubin Mehta ( His last recording ever of this concerto and maybe the last time he played it. Horowitz was 75 years old in this recording!!!)

 The Piano Concerto No. 3 in D minor, Op. 30, composed in 1909 by Sergei Rachmaninoffhas the reputation of being one of the most technically challenging piano concertos in the standard classical repertoire.

再聽 Horowwitz in Moscow 1986...

「他彈的好嗎?」
鋼琴家霍洛維契(Vladimir Horowitz,1903-1989)跟小提琴家米爾斯坦(Nathan Milstein,1904-1992)都是烏克蘭人,也是好朋友。在紐約時也是鄰居。有一次米爾斯坦談起霍洛維契時說:
「霍洛維契遵照醫師的囑咐,每天下午ㄧ定要在四到五點出去走路一小時,通常他的路線是沿著第五大道經中央公園然後走回家,每次當他回家時都會到我的公寓串門子,其實是來我家彈我的鋼琴,每次也總是要彈斷幾根弦後才離開!有一天他照樣來彈了,一樣彈斷一兩根弦,我女兒在旁邊問我:
『他彈的好嗎?』
『好嗎?』我激動的說:『何止好!他簡直就是奇蹟!他是這世界上最偉大的鋼琴家!』
我永遠也不會忘記我女兒天真又酷酷的回答:
『那他知道嗎?』」

鄭重推薦
-- 教宗9年跑37次國際旅行59國。
-- 與東正教和解,自從1054年分家後首次。
-- 多次拜訪各國伊斯蘭教長 , 誠懇表示尊重與溝通與和平相處。
-- 他多次專訪監獄囚犯,說”失去自由,但不能失去尊嚴..”
-- 他在美國國會說”賣武器的動力是賺錢,鮮血沾污的錢,通常是無辜人的鮮血..”
-- 他告誡“勿向其他宗教傳教...” (告誡的對象應是天主教徒)
-- 他數次代表教廷請求原諒:加拿大教會對印第安人兒童強迫住校接受教會的教育;神父性侵;宗教戰爭等等。
-- 他走路都有困難,仍然奔波各處有苦難的地方,帶來希望、夢想、撫慰。
-- 他處資料顯示:他跪下為回教難民洗腳。

教皇方濟各 為拍打信眾手背道歉 在新年前夕向公眾握手致意時,教皇拍掉了一名女子抓住他不放的雙手,並面露不悅。對此,他承認自己失去了耐心,並道歉稱做出了“錯誤的示範”。2020.2

Vatican's Meeting Of Bishops Is Overshadowed By Abuse Allegations


As the Catholic Church deals with new sex-abuse revelations, the pope opened a three-week gathering of bishops in Rome on Saturday on how to make the Church relevant for young people.



The New Yorker


Wim Wenders was given uncommon access to Pope Francis, and to the Vatican’s footage of Francis’s pontificate.

In his film, Wenders found an aesthetic of nearness, inspired by Pope Francis’s conviction that the Church should be among the people.

Pope Takes 12 Refugees to Vatican After Visit to Camp

Pope Francis’ action came after he visited the Greek island of Lesbos and underscored his calls for greater sympathy amid the migrant crisis. The 12 Syrian refugees included six children.





79歲的Pope Francis為各異教難民洗腳、親吻。我看見他們眼角泛淚的光---就是這道光,點亮世人的心。

'We have different cultures and religions, but we are brothers and we want to live in peace'



--2015.1.8
上周Pope Francis談不可侵犯宗教領導, 我想起的是伏爾泰把基督/天主教挖苦得讓其無地自容。
然後Pope Francis 到菲律賓做所謂600萬人風雨下的彌沙。那兒的兒童淪為最被剝削的一群時,教宗又在那兒?
Six million people turned out to see Pope Francis celebrate mass in the Philippine capital Manila. Full story: http://u.afp.com/D8h

'His remark that you can "expect a punch" if you insult Islam isn't the first time a crack in his liberal image has appeared'
