But away from her I feel great pity. I think she was very bright and capable and could have done great things if she hadn't been born into a life where she was crushed by both her father and her husband. Even without a beer, when she was talking to interviewers, she could show profound insight into a lot of things. David Dubal kept in touch with her post Horowitz.

In the Harvey Sachs book, one of Rubinstein's kids mentioned how hard it was to realize that all of their needs, including their mother's, came after Chopin, Brahms, Beethoven et al. Maybe Pennario was right; he stayed single. Also, when Horowitz once told an interviewer that he had an affinity with Schumann and the interviewer asked what it was, Wanda said "They're both crazy!"Prof. Gnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6717274106260594383.post-81907526059471756742011-01-31T06:48:44.069-08:002011-01-31T06:48:44.069-08:00Hahahahahahaa!
