February 10 1937
Rachmaninoff's role: Solo Pianist
Notes: Satina’s notes are not clear for this concert. While the framework of the program is initially similar to concerts given in Pasadena and Claremont earlier in the month, her addition of a work by Medtner, and a Nocturne by Chopin and Prelude by Rachmaninoff, does not indicate clearly if they are replacing other works, nor their placement. Satina notes that only the Hungarian Rhapsody by Liszt was mentioned in the review of the concert, but this does not necessarily mean that the Liebestraum and Valse oubliée were not played.
