Sergei Prokofiev in New York City - 20 February, 1919, in the afternoon

from Sergey Prokofiev diaries: 20 February 1919, page 391:

In the afternoon I went to Rubinstein's concert, his first appearance in New York. He plays well, in places astonishingly so, but sometimes rather uninterestingly. He is at his best in modern music: Albéniz and Debussy.
