Horowitz

Video Find of the Day

MAYONNAISE, n. One of the sauces which serve the French in place of a state religion. - Ambrose Bierce, the Devil's Dictionary.

Mr. Bierce unfortunately had no such entry for Polonaise, which I used to think was a Polish secret sauce. (Being Polish, it should be reversed, like Polish logic. Therefore the secret ought to be that it should not be secret.)

Anyway, this looks hard.

Vladimir Horowitz - Chopin Polonaise in A-flat major, Op. 53
