Arthur Rubinstein - Chopin - Piano Concerto No 2 in F minor, Op 21

[@donbunch4356]

My father tuned for Artur Rubinstein at East Carolina college. Mr Rubinstein knelt down to shake my hand, as my father introduced me to him. I was 5 years old. I didn't fully realize the gravity of the moment, but I knew it was special !!

When I was 12, My Mom took me to my 1st Carnegie Hall concert during its 75th Anniversary celebrations. Rubinstein was on the program and my Mom took me backstage to meet him post concert. That's when I learned that my maternal Grandfather knew him. He and my Mom had a chat and Mom have me an unforgettable memory.

Perhaps at age 12, as a piano student, my parents took me to a Rubenstein concert in Washington, D.C. What an experience! (I'm 73 now)...not just the wonderful music, but also the vivid charm of his manners, dress, movements on stage, graciousness towards the audience and pure dignity. The video is impressive, but only a faint echo of being there. The first record I bought myself was a recording of AR's Chopin noctures. What a gift to the music loving world.

[@MrDavek959]

I am also 73 and also went to hear Rubenstein in Washington. it was with the National Symphony and I think I was about 15 and I think Rubenstein played the Schumann Concerto. I'm pretty sure Howard Mitchell conducted the orchestra.

A nice experience, I'm sure ! But it is sad to admit thats all people leaving comments on that video are over 60... What are youngers loving and listening today, Rap ? Those have nothing to do with Rubinstein... that's a great preoccupation for me and future new artists. Who will be able to play Chopin that way in fifty years ?... I don't know.

È vero, l'arte di Rubinstein al pianoforte ha qualcosa di veramente terapeutico; sembra quasi che ogni nota suonata da lui possa raggiungere direttamente le parti più vulnerabili dell'anima, offrendo conforto e ristoro. La sua capacità di trasmettere emozioni così profonde attraverso la musica di Chopin non è solo un tributo al suo straordinario talento, ma anche un regalo inestimabile per tutti noi che troviamo rifugio e ispirazione nelle sue interpretazioni. Condividere questo apprezzamento con qualcuno che sente profondamente l'arte di Rubinstein è veramente speciale. Grazie per aver condiviso la tua esperienza emotiva; è un ricordo del potere unificante della musica.

[@marinakingham71]

Chopin moves me and fills my senses like no other. This concerto is my absolute favourite piece of his. The emotions race and tumble downstream, then gently flow into a calm lake softly lapping at the water’s edge. Clouds float by, birds sing in the trees, love is in the air, I feel peace and contentment. He breaks my heart and then I am in love again. Love never dies in his music, he always gives us hope and a sense of purpose. Do you feel it too?

[@markmulfinger]

Longevity and Chopin seemed to be linked in my family. My grandmother Elizabeth Mulfinger practiced her Chopin every morning for two hours well into her upper 90’s and passed away at 102. George Mulfinger her teacher at Syracuse University and husband who Studied with Emil von Sauer, passed away at 88.

A local orchestra (which included a lady who later became one of my profs) prepared all week for the Maestro to arrive for the run through before the evening's concert. They begin the intro. He waves for them to stop. "What is that you're playing?" Such and such concerto was the reply. "That is not what I prepared!" Stunned silence. He closes his eyes, flutters his fingers over the keyboard a minute or two. Looking up at the conductor says "all right, go ahead".

[@josephineprocter7042]

You are quite right. I quote from Joan Chissell's book on Schumann. (Page 198) as follows: 'His enthusiasm for Chopin dates from his first article of 1831, containing the now famous sentence: 'Off with your hats, gentlemen--a genius,' and in all his subsequent writings he acknowledges Chopin as a true representative of the 'new poetic age'. ALSO: in Judith Chernak's book on Schumann, the Faces and the Masks (page 258) she writes: ''New Paths'' could be seen as a companion piece to Schumann's early review of Chopin's "Mozart" Variations, in which he hailed Chopin as a genius." To all lovers of Chopin's music I would recomnend your acquiring the Alan Walker's biography of Chopin entitled 'Fryderyk Chopin....A Life and Times' available both in hardback and softback. A fantastic , comprehensive read , illustrated and including extracts from his compositions.

I auditioned before the great Rubinstein in Los Angeles as a child as a member of the National Fraternity of Student Musicians at about age 9. I did not know who he was then, except as a judge of my performance. I didn't realize how great he was as a pianist until much later. He gave me good marks on my performance evaluation, and I got a gold NFSM pin shaped like a piano. A good grade was all that mattered to me then, today, I watch his white hair and strong hands and fingers on the keyboard in awe. He didn't have white hair when I played the piano for him, and I don't remember if he said much to me. Today I watch him in awe for the great man that he was and awe at his masterful performance, staid and under-dramatic, his music says it all and that is what is so beautiful and moves me to tears at the end of his performance! I can't believe he is age 88 here and to see the agility of his hands performing is just awesome!

In 2021, I am listening this amazing performance that was recorded in 1961. I am so honored to listen this music played by virtuoso Arthur Rubinstein.

[@lorddaver3019]

This performance was recorded in 1975, not 1961.

@@lorddaver3019 Thanks for correction!

Thanks for telling us that this recording was made in 1961. I didn’t know that.

[@zuhairbakdoud1360]

I wish l had enough technique to enable me to play like Rubinstein, lol!!

[@zuhairbakdoud1360]

@@lorddaver3019 Thanks for the correction. I am not the one who claimed that it was recorded in ‘61.

Lorsque Rubinstein arrive il me dit tout ce que j’ai toujours rêvé d’entendre . Merci pour tant, tant de bonheur

Let's all appreciate how stunning this is!

I love the performances of Arthur Rubinstein. He was a big hero of my lovely mother ( Piano Teacher). Thanks for sharing this unforgettable concert. Julianadorp / The Netherlands / Oktober 30 2022 / Hebert Perez Garcia

Indiscutabil, Rubinstein ramane unul din geniile pianului! Chopin romanticul creator de muzica divina, ne farmeca mereu!

[@francescoiovino5529]

Rubinstan, un genio assoluto mi è sempre piaciuto quel suo tocco pianistico particolare. Poi c'è da dire che è stato, a mio avviso, il migliore interprete di F. Chopin in assoluto!

He made this look so easy to play ... pure genius.

This concerto brought me back to life during my very very bad times . thank you for sharing this magic .

[@petermesu3712]

Chopin loved Mozart zo much. And you can hear that ! So wunderful!

[@DawidPianoo]

Oh how beautifully he plays it!

Eines der schönsten Musikstücke der Klassikgeschichte , interpretiert von einem der größten ( für mich der größte) Pianisten aller Zeiten. Bei diesem seinem letzten Konzert, war Rubinstein bereits 88 Jahre alt , bevor er ein paar Monate später völlig erblindete. Unvorstellbar diese Interpretation. Mehr geht nicht.

[@ליאורהפלד-ר1ק]

This performance by Arthur Rubinstein is brilliant perfect and amazing in its beauty and depth of expression and technique. This genial interpretation of Chopin proves Rubinsten's outstanding talent as well as Chopin's Genius as a piano composer. This music is eternal.

[@santiagomansillacantero271]

Rubinsten no hay palabras para catalogarlo y el director de orquesta sublime!!!!

[@YinYeung11]

88 yrs old , he brain could memerise the whole concerto, impossible. 🙇‍♀

[@etsukosmith4219]

There were two guys chose this concert this years at Chopin’s International piano contest.. Both played very good but I came back to Rubinstein’s concert. His is very deep and something catches my soul. I listen this music every night. I like this conductor, too.

[@fiorellabrancacci1921]

Always we need to return to Rubinstein because he is Chopin!

[@soniagallina1071]

Rubistein grandissimo!!! Serio mentre suona.......ti regala emozioni...............

[@wallyssalas]

A great display of musical elegance and technique in the playing of this great piano concerto by Maestro Rubinstein, especially at the late age when he recorded this composition. I personally think he delivers strength, musical precision and the exact notes and markings as written and delivered by Frédéric Chopin, his compatriot. A classic, impersonal recording for the ages.

Arta muzicală este cod de comunicare de înaltă sensibilitate și comunicare între ființe alese ,fie de creatori de muzică geniali, fie interpreți geniali de muzică instrumentală sau vocală. Aceste genii au vârste diferite, cu trăiri diferite, dar toate luminoase și încântătoare, modele de înțelegere a frumosului de poezie sonoră. Să iubim muzica bună si să ne instruim muzical ,că sufletește devenim mai buni și mai echilibrați. Acest concert și celelalte existente pe KZbin sunt exemple frumoase și de mare calitate de înțelegere a muzicii. Mulțumesc frumos KZbin

Em 1959, tinha eu 7 anos, meu pai chegou com um Long-Play ( Vinil ) com o Terceiro Concerto de Beethoven, na capa, o maestro Arthur Rubinstein, desde daí, me apaixonei pela música Erudita, alguns anos depois, foi lançado nas bancas " Grandes Compositores da música Universal" daí vieram outras edições na Era do CD, hoje, temos o privilégio de ter tudo no KZbin, muito agradecido.

[@agseu3668]

É assim mesmo, Orestes! Eu também comecei com o Terceiro Concerto de Beethoven com o Rubinstein. Por sorte o disco trazia também o Quarto Concerto… Que alegria a minha, era eu um jovem. Hoje, quando os anos já pesam, continuo a ouvir Rubinstein com gosto e certo de que, algures no Universo, os ecos das suas interpretações pianísticas ressoam. A grande música é assim, não tem fronteiras.

[@stevewallschlaeger1379]

Rubinstein was not a showoff, he IS a showman and his craft is nothing less than magnificent. His soul is left to guard in this and many other recordings. May anyone who knows what it means to pour out the soul into music always treasure Arthur Rubinstein Victor Borge Vladmir Horowitz and the masters like them who are exhausted when they have poured into it all they have. Make no mistake he is using every muscle in his being. Even as effortless as he may appear

[@johndilworth5742]

Just superb, the greatest piano virtuoso, no ego a consumate musician. Plus Previn & The orchestra. Music for lifs the soul...Chopin the composer who wrote understanding human frailty,mixed emotions & importantly the appreciation of love & art.

[@peterlarsen1000]

We are still greatly privileged to be able to listen to these great masters of the past. In this world where things have gone awry, it is music which lifts us to a higher level of being, brings us joy and makes us believe in the beauty of the creative side of humanity. Rosa Larsen
