1928年，25歲剛開始定居在美國紐約的年輕霍洛維茲(Vladimir Horowitz)，當年的他1月12日首度在紐約演奏柴可夫斯基第一號鋼琴協奏曲引起轟動。
前一年他被烏克蘭政府指派參加1927年的第一屆華沙蕭邦鋼琴大賽，但他決定在西方定居而因此拒絕參賽。

Horowitz gave his United States debut on January 12, 1928, in Carnegie Hall. He played Tchaikovsky's Piano Concerto No. 1 under the direction of Sir Thomas Beecham, who was also making his U.S. debut.
Horowitz later said that he and Beecham had divergent ideas about tempos and that Beecham was conducting the score "from memory and he didn't know" the piece.
Horowitz's rapport with his audience was phenomenal. Olin Downes, writing for The New York Times, was critical about the tug of war between conductor and soloist, but credited Horowitz with both a beautiful singing tone in the second movement and a tremendous technique in the finale, calling his playing a "tornado unleashed from the steppes". In this debut performance, Horowitz demonstrated a marked ability to excite his audience, an ability he maintained for his entire career.
Downes wrote: "it has been years since a pianist created such a furor with an audience in this city." In his review of Horowitz's solo recital, Downes characterized the pianist's playing as showing "most if not all the traits of a great interpreter."
