In 1893, Peter Tchaikovsky died of cholera at age 53. As to whether he was simply careless or was ordered to commit suicide by a secret court of honor is debated even today, with strong partisans on either side. As a homosexual pedophile, Pete liked his boys between the ages of 12 and 17. Even though the Russian nobility could literally get away with murder under the tsars, Pete had to be careful, which was why he had entered into a fake marriage.

Sergei Rachmaninov had met and conversed with Tchaikovsky at Zverev’s home at the Moscow Conservatory, and Sergei was probably careful when dealing with the older composer. Now with Tchaikovsky dead, Sergei wrote a chamber work to commemorate the composer.

A decade before, when Tchaikovsky was teaching at the Conservatory under Nikolai Rubinstein, who had preceded Zverev as head honcho, Old Nick had died suddenly. In response, Pete wrote his Trio for Piano, Violin and Cello in A minor, one of the monuments of the Russian chamber repertory.

Sergei’s single movement Elegiac Trio from his student days was such a blatant ripoff of Tchaikovsky’s trio that he didn’t bother to attempt publication. Wise move! Now with Pete gone, Sergei decided to write a second Elegiac Trio in three movements as a tribute to Tchaikovsky himself. As a result, it didn’t hurt that this piece sounded a lot like the late master.

This is a 45 minute piece, a bit long for my taste, so set aside time, preferably with a strong drink. Anything with vodka will do. I prefer tomato juice, Tobasco and Worcestershire, with just a touch of bitters.

Rachmaninov: Trio elegiaque #2 in D minor, Op, 9

Howdy, Connie Lou! (((hugs)))

Hubby just measured and we have gotten 4.3 inches here at the
house, but so far it seems to be soaking in really good. It’s not QUITE ark-building time, but maybe tomorrow. Y’all keep
sending the hurricane leftovers to us. :)

Thank goodness we’re on high ground, though! That’s a lotta rain! :)

I am so glad the weekend is finally here. Maybe I can get some sleep. LOL!

Several parental errands tomorrow, and the every 3 week library run. Then I think the weekend is mine.

Did you have a good day? Do you have to shop this weekend? A little “me” time? *HUGS*

As the year turned to 1894, Sergei Rachmaninov turned 21, and he published a set of Seven Salon Pieces for piano as his Opus 10.

The first is a little heartbreaker.

Rachmaninov: Nocturne in A minor, Op. 10/1

The second is a lot of fun, with just a taste of Chopin.

Waltz in A, Op. 10/2

The third is a recording of Sergei himself playing by way of an Ampico piano roll.

Barcarolle in G minor, Op. 10/3

The fourth is one of those sad, heartfelt pieces that only Russians can write.

Melody in E minor, Op. 10/4

The fifth is a recording of Sergei himself via Ampico.

Humoresque in G, Op. 10/5

The sixth is a contemplative little tune.

Romance in F minor, Op. 10/6

The seventh is an idea of a mazurka quite different from Chopin.

Mazurka in D-flat, Op. 10/7

If you’re going to listen to the trio — or the symphony, which I’ll be posting a little bit later — make sure you have a stiff drink ready.
