  • I agree with all 6 comments. This doesn't sound like Rubinstein and it is expression-less and the dynamics are all wrong.

    And as for me, it sounds too fast

  • GREAT! This piece is marked largo but also alla breve, and therefore it's NOT too slow. It's too fast only if the listener is expecting (and maybe plays it) with 4 beats to the bar. But with 2 in a bar it flows as it should, and the rubato sounds organic. As for the dynamics- there is a cresc. in bar 12- but forte in bar 17. This implies there should be a subito p in bar 13 to enable the approach to the emotional climax. Cortot also chooses alla breve, but his 2nd page is very exaggerated.

  • this audio was compressed before uploading which results in a flattened dynamic range. You can tell if you click where it says "Buy" and compare what u hear on Amazon to what you hear here...

  • the dinamics are the same i' ve in a " Alfredo Casella" revision of this beautiful piece

  • Como vivir sin música tan bella y admirable tocada con propias manos de artistas excelentes.Como no soñar con esta música tan relajante y embellecedora.Como no sentir cosas extrañas que te envuelven al oirlas.Yo quiero ser un día como ellos los señores Beethoven,Mozart,Chopin,Shasco­oksky,Shuber entre muchos otros quiero ser una gran pianista.

  • hermosamente bello

  • I Love

  • I doubt this is rubinstein...

  • is this really rubenstein? the dynamics are all wrong wrong wrong!

  • That's an old recording, indeed. It's proof that Rubinstein improved with age, and why shouldn't he? We all should. I wonder what year the recording is, though?
