I knew and performed with Arthur Rubinstein when in the Solti/CSO with Arthur Rubinstein as our Guest Piano Soloist in the Opening Season Subscription Concerts and knowing his very close friend, also my friend in Europe, I said little yet when the Maestro invited me to offer my opinion on the Piano he was to perform on for the Concert, conducting a sort of "Test" playing the same passages on both No. 1 and No. 2 Piano's, listening most carefully & being the Violinist Daughter of Arnold Schoenberg's Pianist with Leonard Stein, for Arnold Schoenberg's UCLA Advanced Classes in Theory: Form & Analysis w/Top Orchestral Structure and Composition, also Professor Schoenberg's T.A. {Teaching Assistant} of 2 Years, circa 1938-1940, graduating with Honours from UCLA with a Bachelor of Arts in Music Degree, I knew Piano Sound from the pearled sounds Mother always made, loving Rubinstein, and when A. R. asked me for my opinion, although a bit shy, I did offer my genuine choice of Piano No. 2 being much more welcoming to his pearled sound and loving the ivories & opposed to Piano No. 1 which was a bit inflexible to which Maestro Rubinstein said: "Ah, Elisabeth dear, your choice is exactly what I was going to select and I would like to invite you and your husband to dine with me after tonight's concert!!" I had to tell the Maestro I had to check with my just married hubby, and asked after doing so, "Maestro, due other commitments, I am deeply saddened to ask if You might give us a Rain Check??!" The Great Rubinstein looked me right in the eye very kindly saying, "But Of Course!" He was a rare charming gentleman full of life and vital love for Music and his sharing of it with All who would listen! The Person of Arthur Rubinstein, mirrored the Artist and Artistry of one of the GOAT Pianists for Centuries past and in the Future to come!! This rare Person who gave The World immense joy through the Music he deeply loved throughout his lengthy wondrous Life of 95 years ... AR's de Falla is beyond Wonderful!! It reflects the young in his possibly mid 50s Vigour and strength yet balanced offering of a remarkable piece for Grand Pianists of which He was King!
