Rubinstein's Variations on Yankee Doodle Dandee

Has anyone played this song, I've heard it is incredibly difficult but the premise sounds amazing, does anyone know of any good recordings? I've never heard it

Sounds tasty.  Anyone have a scan of it?  Didn't see it on IMSLP.

Found a copy, I think it looks pretty hard,
Scrap that it, it is hard

Thanks for sharing it with us!  Yes, I would say it looks pretty hard.  But someone with a barnstorming technique -like Anton himself- should make a real meal of it.
