For another opinion:  Horowitz's recording of L"Isle Joyeux
(a wonderful piece of music) is also one of the most wonderful
recordings of anything.  It's a remarkable (and live) performance,
but you do have to both appreciate, and enjoy, Horowitz's
methods of interpretation, or it might annoy you.

I never had any trouble hearing that last maestoso statement
as 3/4 time, even before I purchased the music and started
playing it.  I think that the way Horowitz makes the first
beat of each measure hang in the air (for almost two beats)
is sheer magic.
