Innumerable Delights Rubinstein plays Chopin - heard by ROBERT ANDERSON '... recordings of remarkable consistency ...'

An unlikely musical combination was that of Chopin and Liszt in a concert to support Harriet Smithson, Hector Berlioz's beloved, who had tumbled out of her carriage and broken a leg. Liszt's flying-mane pianism often resulted in a keyboard's broken strings. Chopin's style was very different. The London Daily News described it towards the end of his life: 'He accomplishes enormous difficulties, but so quietly, so smoothly and with such constant delicacy and refinement that the listener is not sensible of their real magnitude.'
