Notes
Satina noted that this was Alexander Siloti’s 3rd concert of the season. She also indicated that it was the first time that the Second Piano Sonata, and the Polka de W.R., were heard in Moscow. A reference to Apetian is cited, p. 442. Threlfall and Norris claimed that this was the first performance of Rachmaninoff’s Sonata no. 2, however previous dates on this tour for which program details are known indicate this not to be the case. A review by Kurov in Ranneye Utro on December 4, confirms the Sonata, the Barcarolle and Elegy, and the order of the program, without providing specific details of the Etudes-Tableaux and Preludes that were played, while a review by Engel in Russkiye Vedomosti on December 5 names the Prelude in G minor, op. 23, no. 5, noting also that the Barcarolle was played twice.
