Notes
Satina’s notes indicate that she was unsure about which Rachmaninoff concerto was played, but that she concluded it was no. 2. There are no further details available about the ‘Mr Pyshnov’ that Satina indicates conducted this concert, however it is conceivable that it was the pianist, Lev Pouishnoff, who had studied conducting, and was still in Russia at this time. Apetian refers to the conductor as 'L. N. Pishnov', the initials further suggesting this man. LoC, Sergei Rachmaninoff Archive, ML31.R33, Papers of Sophie Satin, boxes 82-89.
