Josef Hofmann plays Rubinstein Melody in F (1923 rec.)

Anton Rubinstein (1829-1894):
Deux Mélodies pour le piano, Op.3: no. 1 in F major (Moderato)

Josef Hofmann (1876-1957), piano
Recorded in 1923

"I recall that Rubinstein once said to me:
'Do you know why piano-playing is so difficult? Because it is prone to be either affected or else afflicted with mannerisms; and when these two pitfalls are luckily avoided then it is liable to be -- dry! The truth lies between those three mischiefs!'"
