Notes

Review confirmed that the Borodin, Rimsky-Korsakov, Musorgsky, and Tchaikovsky's 1812 overture were performed, as well as "briefer items". Also the Shostakovich Symphony No. 1, which was not listed on the program - review is short and may be incorrect, cannot confirm. Printed program is followed here.

Shostakovich - listed in program as "Polka and 'Danse Russe'", no mention of The Golden Age.
