My all-time favorite pianist. Such grace, power, delicacy, sensitivity, depth and joy, he is like a human embodiment of the water element expressed through music. Oh, my heart...

[taslibtaylor-boyd]

Wow nearly 70 years later we can be elated but the wonderful Rubenstein filling the room with virtuosity and nuanced delicacy. What a master of the piano & interpreter of Chopin. Joy.

[gdlb-tgcy]

I don't know what's most impressive, his playing skills or the fact he seems to know every piece of F.Chopin's work absolutely perfectly

[meredith]

Rubinstein was so natural and unaffected at the keyboard, it's as if the piano were a natural extension of his physical being. This fascinating footage captures him at the very zenith of his illustrious career. If I may cherry pick, for me his playing of the Nocturne is simply magical and out of this world. As for the great Polonaise one can only say that Rubinstein truly owned this heroic work.

[neftalipadua]

His legacy; passed, precent, future generations eternally grateful on the late mastro, professor., Mr.Arthur Rubinstein., where ever you are, happybirthday. G-d blesses his family and friends.

Horowitz is my all time favorite pianist. Rubinstein is definetly a close second. But the more I listen to Rubenstein the more pieces that I would prefer his over Horowitz. Like the nocturne that he plays in this video near the end is like…. whattt?! the prettiest piece ever.

[royrosales]

Fantastic video! Thanks so much for sharing.

[johnnynoirman]

He owns the Mazurka No. 21 in C sharp minor, Op. 30, No. 4
RIP Maestros.

Piękno muzyki Fryderyka Chopina to fenomen graniczący z cudem.

[brigittebenic]

Lo interpreta con el corazón lleno de amor

[sandorfarkas]

Nagyon jó lett volna meghallgatni Chopin hogy adta elő maga az eredeti legtöbb világhírű zongoraművész eknek megvan a saját érzésük viszont ott a kotta A dinamika és talán az a legfontosabb valójában minden zenének megvan a saját maga története bárki legyen az okés megérzésnek tapasztalja akkor már nagyon könnyű helyzetben van Elsősorban Főleg ha megvan a nagy tehetsége

[zugzwang]

Synchronisation is a lot better in the speaking parts than hands on keys!

[MrSiruiz]

Como pianista y compositor no hay nada más gracioso que quando se lo siente, más una vez, humillado por Chopin.

[TheSoteriologist]

Have never given any thought to Rubinstein, but I gotta admit ...

[zinam]

Эти слушатели очень хорошо чувствуют Музыку Шопена! ....Good lesteners...!

[michaeljbassler]

He looks like teller from pen and teller

[jiancai_nocturne]
