@ezekieloak Rubinstein would have knocked him out in the first round.

I just finished reading the first 1/2 of his autobiography - fascinating man with a fascinating early life. His words have helped me very much on the subject of music. A bit of trivia, he mentions in his autobiography the advantage of lengthy little fingers.

To me Artun Rubinstein was one of the greatest pianists of all time. I have many of his recordings.
-
In think the same reason why he never performed many other Rachmaninoff compositions. Rubinstein once said that he just didn't like Rachmaninoff as a composer (he admired him as a performer much more), So he recorded only few of his works, in fact only three as far as I know - 2nd concerto, Paganini Rhapsody and Prelude in c sharp minor.

@sklyingjoker I would not even call him a pianist....he is as exact and musical as a sewing machine.

he's like a ninja with a piano!!!! O_o

Smalto ritmico, sfoggio di grinta esecutiva, limpidezza di suono e una orchestra che si amalgama col solista in piena armonia !!! Leggendaria e di straordinaria eleganza interpretativa !!!!!!!!!!!
