About

“...a musician at the height of his powers, playing with precision, delicacy and warmth”
- New Classics

"Mr Rubinstein has a rare prowess at the keyboard, combined with a rare clarity and confidence
in his interpretation. His technique might be described as in the tradition of the pianistic giants
of the past century. He not only plays the instrument, he also thinks. Rubinstein is, in short,
an awesome pianist." - Stereo Times
