There would be many things to say about these recordings, which we consider to be among the discs one would take to a desert island. We spent a great deal of time ensuring that this reissue could enter our EXCELLENCE category. And the result is here: you will not find anything better, that is final. It is as if a veil has been lifted. The separation between the piano and the orchestra is exquisite, so natural that one feels as though being in the recording hall. There emerges a highlighting of Arthur Rubinstein’s playing—at once marked by an assured strength of character and by an infinite bel canto…

Arthur Rubinstein: "How can one explain this immediate understanding, this spontaneous love for Chopin among all peoples? I believe that one of the secrets of his art lies in his uprightness, in that irresistible appeal that comes from the fact that he possesses a language of his own, while at the same time being a universal language. Added to this is the unlimited richness of his musical concepts—a richness which, according to Henry Theophilus Finck (American music critic and author), would suffice to nourish six average composers of symphonies and operas.

Chopin’s secret was rediscovered by Debussy and Ravel. He had many imitators; among the happiest of them, let us mention Scriabin and Szymanowski. But, alas, the masters who succeeded Chopin were not faithful to his art of the piano. Schoenberg, Stravinsky, Bartók, Milhaud, Honegger, Prokofiev, Shostakovich, have written beautiful, great works, but they lost contact with the soul of the piano. For them, it became once again merely a percussion instrument, or almost. For the piano to recover all its possibilities, Chopin’s secret would need to be rediscovered. But Chopin himself will remain unique.

When I am asked how to enter this magic circle and interpret Chopin—whether in the spirit of Romanticism or in the manner of the school for which the piano is nothing more than a percussion instrument—I look for the answer in Chopin himself. His meticulous precision, economical in means, is inseparable from the warmth of his emotion, from the depth of feeling. On one side, heroism, with its absolute refusal of any compromise; on the other, an extreme delicacy and sensitivity. Chopin’s world, with all its richness, gravitates between these two poles."

This IS where you start to understand it all!
Format: Paperback
While I haven't received my Second Edition book yet I do have the First Edition and I can say it's very thorough and well explained to even the beginner level. If you're trying to learn both Linux and Cybersecurity this IS the place you want to start. It will save you a ton of headaches and you're getting VERY VALUABLE skills you can use in any scenario. I would call it an advanced starting point. Linux itself can be somewhat difficult and daunting to learn and understand if you're coming from a strict use (Windows in my case) OS 25+ years. This book bridges that gap effectively and you can absorb the knowledge with a little work. Also watching OTW's video on YouTube with David Bombal is an excellent follow along source. In my opinion, OTW does the best job of explaining exactly what you need to know. And follow it up with a video or two of how to understand the Linux file system and you'll soon be set to go. David Bombal's vids on setting up VM on your computer are also very helpful! If your intention is to get into Cybersecurity from zero knowledge this IS the best point to gain valuable knowledge whether it's to crack into IT, Cybersecurity or just for your own knowledge, this book is worth 10x it's price!

Read This In One Sitting…..
Format: Hardcover
Not pregnant yet, but this book was the perfect balance of information and real-life story. It was so relatable and reassuring—I suddenly didn’t feel crazy for all the hours of baby research I’ve been doing. I never felt pressured, just encouraged and entertained while learning so much. Such a refreshing read, you won’t regret getting this one!
