Horowitz taught seven students between 1937 and 1962: [[Nico Kaufmann]] (1937),<ref name="Zentralbibliothek_Zurich">{{Cite web |title=Kaufmann, Nico (1916–1996) |url=https://www.zb.uzh.ch/spezialsammlungen/musikabteilung/nachlaesse/einzelne-nachlaesse/003594/index.html.de |access-date=24 July 2018 |website=Zentralbibliothek Zürich |language=de |archive-date=25 July 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180725063720/https://www.zb.uzh.ch/spezialsammlungen/musikabteilung/nachlaesse/einzelne-nachlaesse/003594/index.html.de |url-status=live }}</ref> [[Byron Janis]] (1944–1948), [[Gary Graffman]] (1953–1955), [[Coleman Blumfield]] (1956–1958), [[Ronald Turini]] (1957–1965), [[Alexander Fiorillo]] (1960–1962) and [[Ivan Davis]] (1961–1962).<ref>Plaskin, Glenn (1983), p. 10 "interviews with all six of Horowitz's students: Gary Graffman, Byron Janis, Ivan Davis, Ronald Turini, Coleman Blumfield, and Alexander Fiorillo"</ref> Janis described his relationship to Horowitz during that period as a surrogate son, and he often traveled with Horowitz and his wife during concert tours. Davis was invited to become one of Horowitz's students after receiving a call from him the day after he won the Franz Liszt Competition.<ref name="pl">Plaskin, Glenn (1983), p. 305 "...he also won the Franz Liszt Competition and received a surprise phone call from Horowitz the day after the announcement. ...with 60 concerts planned for his first cross-country tour and a CBS record contract, Davis intrigued Horowitz."</ref> At the time, Davis had a contract with Columbia Records and a national tour planned.<ref name=pl/> According to biographer Glenn Plaskin, Horowitz claimed that he had only taught three students during that period, saying "Many young people say they have been pupils of Horowitz, but there were only three: Janis, Turini, who I brought to the stage, and Graffman. If someone else claims it, it's not true. I had some who played for me for four months. Once a week. I stopped work with them because they did not progress." Plaskin remarks: "The fact that Horowitz disavowed most of his students and blurred the facts regarding their periods of study says something about the erratic nature of his personality during that period."<ref name="pla">Plaskin, Glenn (1983), p. 300</ref> Horowitz returned to coaching in the 1980s, working with [[Murray Perahia]], who already had an established career, and [[Eduardus Halim]].
