77 years old; such heritage for today's everyone piano music and history hunger ! But, for now; i don't know much about the man; treasure for anyone who want to discover a legend about another legend ! anyone who finish there, at that hall; is a
Chopin; a Rachmaninov, or a Rubinstein !! Kinda unluck !
FABULOUS!!!! Marvellous video, next-best thing to having been there! A titanic performance of a titanic work--I heard Rubinstein only once in person, his last NY recital, in 1976; 89 years old, almost blind and partly deaf but still extraordinary verve and colour. Here, even at 77 I think he was still in his prime--magnificent playing!!!!!!
@chipheo24 People started clapping long before the pedal was even released. This violates the sense of finality that many of us musicians like to let settle in. He was probably slightly annoyed....... just an educated guess.
Rubinstein has a grand conception of the music and plays it powerfully and spaciously. I have to admit though that I would have expected more tonal subtlety from this artist. Nevertheless he really projects the musical narrative.
...yes,he paints in oil,but listen to part b of the marche funébre,pretty subtly played.i like his masculine chopin,contrary to some so called chopin-specialists,and his phrasing is heavenly...listen to second theme of 1st. mouvement or part b of the scherzo...
@jbbny NO! ... There was Vladimir HOROWITZ. Listen at the White House and in the Rak 3 (when he was 75 years!). ciao.
