At 88, Artur Rubinstein showed no trace of losing that quality of "joie de vivre" that had so fascinated audiences for almost three quarters of a century. The true Rubinstein sound, full and sonorous at every pitch, was always one of the distinctive marks of his playing ever since he began appearing in public. Rubinstein's performance of Grieg's ever-popular piano concerto, accompanied by the London Symphony Orchestra under André Previn, is a perfect testimony of his notion of a "singing tone". With playing that is by turns vital and poetic, extrovert and reflective, rhapsodic and poised, this performance, filmed in April 1975 at London's Fairfield Hall, is Rubinstein at his warm-hearted, lyrical best. He devoted himself particularly intensively to the works of his fellow countryman Chopin and set standards in Chopin interpretation with his unsentimental playing . In 1976 he withdrew from the concert stage in London with a farewell concert, and in December 1982 he died in Geneva at the age of 95. 88岁高龄时的阿图尔鲁宾斯坦并没有失去其近四分三个世纪令观众如此着迷的质量。鲁宾斯坦的真实琴声，每一个音调完整而铿锵，一直是他的特殊演奏标誌之一。鲁宾斯坦弹奏格里格日益受欢迎的钢琴协奏曲并由伦敦交响乐团及安德烈•普列文指挥下，完美见证了其富有诗意，但又外向和狂想。 拍摄于 1975年4月伦敦的费尔菲尔德音乐厅，是鲁宾斯坦在他的热情，抒情的最好表现。鲁宾斯坦亦致力深入演奏同乡萧邦的作品。鲁宾斯坦于1982年12月，在日内瓦去世，享年95岁。 ComposerEdvard Grieg TitlePiano Concerto in A minor, op.16 Length34 minutes ComposerFrédéric Chopin TitlePiano Concerto No.2 in F minor, op.21 Length34 minutes TitleScherzo in B flat minor, op.31 Length10 minutes ConductorSir André Previn SoloistArtur Rubinstein OrchestraLondon Symphony Orchestra Video DirectorHugo Käch
