Rachmaninoff's role
Concerto Soloist and Solo Pianist
Notes
While Mottl's transcription of two movements from Rameau's Concerto in G minor for orchestra alone is not mentioned in the attached reviews, the Hallé Orchestra archive indicates that it was performed. There is discrepancy about which Preludes by Rachmaninoff were played, with the attached press clipping being at odds with the first attached review; the keys and order of the works are given according to the review. The Polka de W.R. is noted as an encore. LoC, Sergei Rachmaninoff Archive, ML31.R33, Papers of Sophie Satin, boxes 82-89.
