Notes
Satina notes that this was the first time Rachmaninoff played an all Russian recital program in New York. It is not indicated whether the 2nd or 3rd piece from Medtner's op. 7 was performed. The third attached review notes that among the audience were Nellie Melba and Geraldine Farrar, and that Rachmaninoff's Prelude in C sharp minor, op. 3, no. 2, was one of a small group of encores at the end. The fourth attached review indicates that 'The Star-Spangled Banner' was played at the beginning. Regarding Rachmaninoff's Variations, op. 22, the first attached review indicates: 'As played yesterday it was in a form somewhat changed from that in which it first was published ten or more years ago. Some six of the original variations were left out yesterday, one, new, was substituted and a bravura finale is now set as a quiet mood.'
