Ya, know I remember seeing Sarah brightman (barf) gyrating and flopping as though she had Palsy of some sort and none of it making any sense until I experienced da Bush, who made it look cool.

And this before MDMA right? Visionary lass.

When caught up in the moment of performance, Rubinstein did not seem to care how many wrong notes he played as long as his conception of the piece he was playing came through.[31] Rubinstein himself admitted, after a concert in Berlin in 1875, “If I could gather up all the notes that I let fall under the piano, I could give a second concert with them.”[32]

She heard Rubinstein play “a terrific piece by Schubert,” reportedly the Wanderer Fantasie. The performance gave her such a violent headache that the rest of the recital was ruined for her

Clara Schumann proved especially vehement. After she heard him play the Mendelssohn C minor Trio in 1857, she wrote that “he so rattled it off that I did not know how to control myself 
 and often he so annihilated fiddle and cello that I 
 could hear nothing of them.”

Part of the problem might have been the sheer size of Rubinstein’s hands. They were huge, and many observers commented on them. Josef Hofmann observed that Rubinstein’s fifth finger "was as thick as my thumb—think of it!
Pianist Josef LhĂ©vinne described them as “fat, pudgy 
 with fingers so broad at the finger-tips that he often had difficulty in not striking two notes at once.”

Rubinstein told the young Rachmaninoff how he achieved that tone. “Just press upon the keys until the blood oozes from your fingertips”. When he wanted to, Rubinstein could play with extreme lightness, grace and delicacy. He rarely displayed that side of his nature, however. He had learned quickly that audiences came to hear him thunder, so he accommodated it
