December 13 1937
Rachmaninoff's role: Solo Pianist
Notes: Satina notes that in this program the Beethoven sonata that appeared in Exeter and Norwalk on the days either side was not played, but rather the Chopin Waltz and Ballade were added. However, Satina does not indicate the exact placement of these works, and where they were added cannot be indicated with certainty. The Liebestraum similarly replaced the Liszt Sonetto.

February 14 1938
Rachmaninoff's role: Solo Pianist
Notes: It is likely that the Chopin Mazurka was op. 63, no. 3, given that Rachmaninoff played it in other concerts this season. LoC, Sergei Rachmaninoff Archive, ML31.R33, Papers of Sophie Satin, boxes 82-89.

February 28 1938
Rachmaninoff's role: Solo Pianist
Notes: Satina notes that she has copied the keys and opuses of these works from the same program that Rachmaninoff played in Newcastle a few weeks later. However, there may be reason to doubt the key of the Chopin Nocturne, if a comparison with that concert is made. LoC, Sergei Rachmaninoff Archive, ML31.R33, Papers of Sophie Satin, boxes 82-89.
