Artur Rubinstein
born Jan. 28, 1887, odz, Pol. died Dec. 20, 1982, Geneva, Switz. Polish-U.S. pianist. His studies with Joseph Joachim led to a debut in Berlin in 1900. He later studied with Ignacy Jan Paderewski as well and performed with moderate success. After some years accompanying the violinist Eugène Ysaye (1858-1931), he stopped performing for five years (1932-37) to improve his technique and reemerged as a giant of 20th-century music. Moving to the U.S., he became equally noted as soloist and chamber musician, with such partners as Jascha Heifetz and Gregor Piatigorsky (1903-76). Active through his 80s, his repertoire ranged from Johann Sebastian Bach to 20th-century Spanish composers; his playing of Frédéric Chopin and Johannes Brahms was particularly admired

In the 1930s he became the first to record the complete Beethoven cycle.
