Amazing saxophone solo in the middle of movement 1. Orthodox Christianity conducts Saturday School for kids. My wife is Russian, and the Church where my son went to his Saturday school was where Rachmaninov went to services when he was in exile from the mid 1930s till his death from melanoma, Age 69 in 1943. Some elderly people remember seeing him when they were kids. He had a memorial service there. Church on Micheltorena St, Los Angeles.
Btw. Rachmaninov wrrote Symphonic Dances in 1940 while he lived here in Los Angeles
