Notes
Satina noted that beyond the inclusion of Rachmaninoff's two preludes, the Barcarolle and the Polka, the rest of the program was unknown to her, but also that it included ‘songs’ sung by ‘Madame Skalontz’. Bertensson and Leyda confirmed this concert, also noting that Skilondz sang songs by Rachmaninoff. While publicity and reviews of Rachmaninoff at this time in Sweden used his preferred orthography, in this instance his name was spelled 'Rachmaninow' and 'Rachmaninov'. The attached press clipping and review supply the further information about the concert. The exact order of the program, which the review notes included 'Russian arias and romances', is unknown.
