What caught my eye in the clippings above was the notice that Rachmaninoff (1873-1943) was performing at Carnegie Hall in recital.

Tomorrow's main thread includes a review of the Carnegie Hall performance. He only played one of his own compositions. He also did Bach, Beethoven, Schubert, Liszt, and Chopin. An accompanying article covers Toscanini conducting the NBC Symphony Orchestra in Beethoven's "Coriolanus" overture and the fifth and sixth symphonies. I hope New Yorkers appreciated what they had back then.

Thanks for the heads up on the Rachmaninoff review tomorrow. I'll watch for my ping!

This should be interesting as the composer was also notable as being one of the great pianists in the entire world during his career.
