The title should be enough information, I'm curious. He seems quite tall.
Listing heights of other pianists would be cool too.
My gods are: Cortot, Horowitz, and Sofronitsky,
Started piano during COVID, hopefully I can play Rachmaninoff, Rubinstein, and Scriabin compositions one day...

BTW, the first time I went to see Horowitz, I had no idea about his size, or in fact anything about what he looked like.
I remember how surprised I was at what a little guy he was.
