E VER since Anton Rubinstein dazzled his American audiences, as much by the strange charm of his compositions as by the startling brilliance of h1s playing, Russ1an music and Russian musicians have enjoyed an enviable popularity here.

Russia since the mid nmeteenth century Yet, despite this flood of composit1on, from Rubin­ stein to Prokofieff, seemingly unstemmed by the horrors of war, the chaos of revolution, or the rigors of peace, it is rare indeed that an entire program of Russian piano music reaches the con­ cert hall.
