Notes
Satina did not have a clear understanding of this concert: she initially indicated the program details were according to information received from Mr Tillett, which included Scarlatti sonatas, however she later found a review in Music Opinion, in which it was stated that Rachmaninoff played a program including the Bach-Tausig Toccata and a group of Russian works. This later opinion appears then to have been backed up by a pencilled note: ‘Correct – I was present. P Piggott’. The two attached reviews offer greater clarity, and the second half of the program appears mainly similar to what Rachmaninoff played in Stockholm on February 12; the entire program appears to be the same as was played in Glasgow on March 4. The Prelude in C sharp minor, op. 3, no. 2, is noted as the last of the encores. LoC, Sergei Rachmaninoff Archive, ML31.R33, Papers of Sophie Satin, boxes 82-89.
