Metropolitan Opera House in New York. Wassily Sapellnikoff, who played the concerto many times with Tchaikovsky himself conducting, made a record in 1926 with Aeolian Orchestra under Stanley Chapple. Arthur Rubinstein recorded the concerto five times: with John Barbirolli in 1932; with Dmitri Mitropoulos in 1946; with Artur Rodzinski live in 1946; with Carlo Maria Giulini in 1961; and with Erich Leinsdorf in 1963. Solomon recorded the concerto thrice, most notably with Philharmonia Orchestra under Issay Dobrowen in 1949. Egon Petri in 1937 with London Philharmonic Orchestra under Walter Goehr. Vladimir Horowitz performed this piece as part of a World War II fundraising concert in 1943, with his father-in-law, the conductor Arturo Toscanini, conducting the NBC Symphony Orchestra. Two performances of Horowitz playing the concerto and Toscanini conducting were eventually released on records and CDs – the live 1943 rendition, and an earlier studio recording made in 1941. Van Cliburn won the First International Tchaikovsky Competition in 1958 with this piece, surprising some people, as he was an American competing in Moscow at the height of the Cold War. He received an 8 minute standing ovation for this performance. His subsequent RCA LP recording with Kirill Kondrashin was the first classical LP to go platinum. Emil Gilels recorded the concerto more than a dozen times, both live and in studio. The studio recording with Fritz Reiner and the Chicago Symphony Orchestra in 1955, and his performance in Portugal, in 1961, with the Portuguese Radio Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Pedro de Freitas Branco, are very well regarded. Sviatoslav Richter in 1962 with Herbert von Karajan and the Vienna Symphony Orchestra. Richter also made recordings in 1954, 1957, 1958 and 1968. Lazar Berman recorded the concerto in studio with Berlin Philharmonic under Herbert von Karajan in 1975 playing the revised version, and live in 1986 with Yuri Temirkanov playing the original version of 1875. Claudio Arrau recorded the concerto twice, once in 1960 with Alceo Galliera and the Philharmonia Orchestra and again in 1979 with Sir Colin Davis and the Boston Symphony Orchestra. Martha Argerich recorded the concerto in 1971 with Charles Dutoit and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. She also recorded it in 1980 with Kirill Kondrashin and the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra, as well as in 1994 with Claudio Abbado and the Berlin Philharmonic. Horacio Gutiérrez's performance of this piece at the International Tchaikovsky Competition (1970) resulted in a silver medal.
