Recording Information
recorded October 1, 1964
Grand Hall of the Tchaikovsky Conservatory, Moscow
released in 1999 as RCA Red Seal 09026 63062-2
This 2 CD set features one of the rare recorded examples of Arthur Rubinstein in live performance. For those only familiar with his studio recordings, these CDs will be something of a revelation. In front of an audience, Rubinstein became infinitely more fired up and abandoned any pretense at note perfect performances. On occasion, he would become so caught up in the moment that he would suffer a memory lapse–which he would skillfully cover up, improvising and finding his way back to the music without batting an eye.
For his 1964 Moscow recital–given in the same hall where Horowitz gave his historic 1986 recital–Rubinstein chose an all Chopin program (except for the encores, which Rubinstein announces in Russian).
The Chopin Sonata, Op. 35 is given a more fiery, powerful performance than in his 1961 studio version. The "Descent into Hell" episode midway throught the first movement is indeed terrifying. Rubinstein ran off the rails during the Scherzo, and RCA has spliced in a portion from Rubinstein's studio recording. (The touching up of "live" recordings is commonplace. But it would have been helpful if RCA had included the untouched Scherzo as an appendix, as it is an excellent example of how Rubinstein could cover up memory lapses.)
The two Chopin Polonaises are played in a splashy manner altogether different than in Rubinstein's more formal 1964 studio versions. They recall his legendary earlier recording from the 1930s.
We also have a rare example here of Rubinstein playing Chopin Etudes. Rubinstein attempted to record a complete set of Etudes in the early 1970s, but abandoned the project after one session. This is a pity, because the brilliance of these live performances indicates it would have been a stunning set–note-perfect or not.
The recorded sound is passable, although it is not listed as such, it sounds like mono to my ears. Recommended for all fans of great piano playing. (Hank Drake on amazon.com)
