Anton Rubinstein?
Edit: oder gar Nikolai Rubinstein?
I’ve played (the [...] dedicated to [...]) about fifteen times, but of these fifteen performances, only one was good. The others were sloppy. I can’t play my own compositions! And it’s so boring! Not once have I played these all in continuity. I was guided by the coughing of the audience. Whenever coughing would increase, I would skip the next variation. Whenever there was no coughing, I would play them in proper order. In one concert, I don’t remember where, some small town, the coughing was so violent that I played only ten variations (out of twenty). My best record was set in New York, where I played 18 variations. However, I hope that you will play all of them and won’t ‘cough’.
The following letter to Nicholai Medtner (a composer Rachmaninov admired greatly and to whom he dedicated his Variations on a Theme by Corelli Op. 42) reveals his wry sense of humor. "I’ve played (the Op. 42 variations) about fifteen times, but of these fifteen performances, only one was good. The others were sloppy. I can’t play my own compositions! And it’s so boring! Not once have I played these all in continuity. I was guided by the coughing of the audience. Whenever the coughing would increase, I would skip the next variation. Whenever there was no coughing, I would play them in proper order. In one concert, I don’t remember where, some small town, the coughing was so violent that I played only ten variations (out of twenty). My best record was set in New York, where I played 8 variations. However, I hope that you will play all of them, and won't ‘cough’."
Hallo Pitt und Ratefüchse,
die Musik kenne ich nicht, aber Lückentexte mag ich und Google auch:
Schwer sind sie schon, aber durch meine wertvollen (anscheinend nicht so.. ;)) Tipps hätte man imho auf den Komponisten auch ohne Vorkenntnis durchaus schließen können.Aber mal im Ernst, die Rätsel sind in letzter Zeit einen Tick zu schwer, oder?!
Es weiß kaum einer und die Beteiligung tendiert gegen 3/4 hartgesottene Ratefüchse

Das ist aber nicht im Sinne des Erfinders ;)
