HA! I was beside an idiot who kept moaning and groaning and snorting through anything he didn't like in that concert, which covered most of the Rachmaninoff pieces. I was also on the ground floor but under the first balcony, so his running commentary bounced back to me better than Mr. Horowitz's playing.
