The basis of the Arthur Rubinstein's technique

 

Maurizio Pollini speaks about his meeting with Arthur Rubinstein in Warsaw in 1960, just after he won the 1-st prize in the International Chopin Piano Competition where Rubinstein was the chairman of the jury.

“He gave me a piece of advice the best I have had in all those years.

He said it was the very basis of his technique.

The more I think of it, years later, the more I find it precious”
