Notes
Satina believed that a Liszt Etude in A flat major was played at this concert, which could accord with Martyn (p. 426), who indicated that the Concert Etude no. 1 ‘Il lamento’ was played at this time. However, the attached review indicates the etude was in D flat major. In other venues where this program was played, the Chopin Polonaise was often in E flat minor, op. 26, no. 2, the Nocturne was in F sharp major, op. 15, no. 2, and the Waltz was in F major, op. 34, no. 3. Satina noted that ‘the first 2 numbers are not mentioned’, presumably referring to a review of this concert she had been sent, which could be the same as the one attached which also omits mention of Medtner and Weber. The Prelude in C sharp minor, op. 3, no. 2, is mentioned, however it is not clear whether it was played and, if so, whether it was an encore.
