18 płytowy album zatytułowany Rudolf Firkusny – "The Complete RCA And Columbia (Album Collection)".
Rudolf Firkušný – amerykański pianista pochodzenia czeskiego, rozpoczął swą karierę muzyczną koncertami w Europie w latach 20 tych XX wieku. W 1939 roku uciekł przed nazistami do Paryża, a następnie do Nowego Jorku, gdzie otrzymał obywatelstwo amerykańskie. Firkušný miał szeroki repertuar, doskonale wykonywał dzieła Mozarta, Beethovena, Schuberta, Schumanna, Chopina i Brahmsa, a także Musorgskiego i Debussy'ego. Jednak zasłynął przede wszystkim z wykonań czeskich kompozytorów Bedřicha Smetany, Antonína Dvořáka, Janáčka i Bohuslava Martinů (który napisał dla niego wiele utworów).
