According to Paul Henry Lang last fall the playing exhibited inadequacies exhibited by the visiting Russians, were the consequence of their having been cut off from the musical life of the Western world. Moscow and Leningrad had themselves been important centers in the Western musical world for a century or more. Soviet Russian musicians had remained in contact with those of the West through radio and in some degree through phonograph records. Some of them had direct contact at international competitions in which they had exhibited enough expertness in Western practice to win over their Western competitors.
