4.0 out of 5 stars Great playing marred by some tape hiss, December 19, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Artur Rubinstein 3 - Great Pianists of the Century (Audio CD)

As to be exptected, the playing on these discs are SUPERB. The Beethoven, Brahms and Schubert peices are particuarly wonderful. The only deduction of a star comes from the unusually large amount of tape hiss on the Beethoven Sonata in E Flat "Hunt". The playing, even from that 1954 recording, is still great.
