Excerpt from Great Pianists on Piano Playing: Study Talks With Foremost Virtuosos There could have been but little improvement in our railroads in 1872 when Rubinstein came to America, for although he accepted for 215 concerts dur ing his first trip, he refused an offer of $12 for only 50 concerts when a manager tried to persuade him to return.
