Horowitz was gay
Despite his marriage, there is considerable independent evidence that Horowitz was gay.
He is credited with the ambiguous aphorism: "There are three kinds of pianists: Jewish pianists, homo***ual pianists, and bad pianists".
It is believed he underwent treatment in the 1950s in a futile attempt to alter his ***ual orientation. In the early 1960s and 1970s, he underwent electroshock therapy for depression (Plaskin, Horowitz, pp338, 387).
简单翻译1下:
虽然他结婚了,但是有很多条独立的证据指明他是同性恋
他说过,“世界上有3种钢琴家:犹太钢琴家、同性恋钢琴家和差钢琴家”
他在50年代曾经做过治疗尝试改变他的性向,结果是无用的。在60和70年代还曾经接受过治抑郁症的电休克疗法。(Plaskin, Horowitz, pp338, 387).
以下是引用PianoDA在2006-2-22 14:57:56的发言:
这不是什么秘密了, 他说过同性恋可以挽救世界
后来他因为这句话遭到万达的怒视.
