Description

Rubinstein is regarded as Liszt's sole potential competitor in the concert arena, while Carreño stands out as the leading female pianist of the late 19th century. The two engage in a dialogue about "the essence of the piano," focusing on the intricacies of piano pedaling. An examination of Rubinstein's technique is conducted through the pieces he performed during the years 1885-1886. Carreño's insights delve into her nuanced sensitivity, which is achieved through the interplay of touch and pedal.
