Notes
Satina indicated that this was an all-Rachmaninoff program. The History of Russian Music (vol. 10V, book 2, p. 526), citing Naumov, has a dual listing of 'two concerts' in Kharkiv on December 16 and 17, providing a program only for the first which includes both Rachmaninoff's solo works listed here and three songs sung by Koshets. It may be possible that 'Muse', op. 34, no. 1, 'He took all from me', op. 26, no. 2, and 'I remember this day', op. 34, no. 10, were performed separately at this concert, and that the complete program of songs was performed on December 17, as currently noted.
