Notes
Satina noted that this was Siloti’s Symphony Concert no. 8, also indicating this was the first performance of Rachmaninoff’s Second Symphony. Martyn confirmed that Rachmaninoff conducted only his Symphony and the Grieg Concerto (p. 548). The attached review indicates that Siloti played two etudes by Chopin as an encore, and that an unidentified song by Brahms was added.
