Notes
Satina indicated that this was the 6th concert of the Bradford subscription series season, although she did not note that it was a mixed concert with others performing. The second attached review indicates that the Sonata in D minor, op. 28, was performed, and not the one in B flat minor, yet in giving the tempo indications mainly names those of the later work. There is no apparent reason for this confusion, and the first attached review refers to the program as it appears here. Satina notes the first Prelude as being in E major, however the first review indicates that the one in C sharp minor was substituted for it. The Melody, op. 3, no. 3, was given as an encore.
