Sergei Rachmaninoff in His Own WordsSergei Rachmaninoff (1873 1943) the most celebrated pianist of his day and the composer of some of the most enduring classics of the entire repertoire.

Sergei Rachmaninoff (1873-1943) - the most celebrated pianist of his day and the composer of some of the most enduring classics of the entire repertoire. He was, in contrast to the generous expressiveness of his music and his piano-playing, essentially a private person with a famously reserved, unsmiling platform manner. However, in these interviews, collected and annotated here for the first time, he candidly voices his thoughts about his own compositions and the art of playing the piano, his harsh responses to much of the contemporary music around him, reminiscences of his years in Russia and his reactions to living and working in the USA and Switzerland, together with a range of insights into aspects of his professional career and his family life. These interviews reveal fascinating new perspectives on a much-loved composer and musician, and valuable glimpses of what lay behind the public image. Joint edition with the Serge Rachmaninoff Foundation

Absolutely love this purse!
Color: Nude
Absolutely love this purse! The material feels and looks lux. Very smooth material, and it goes with many outfits and events. Has so much room inside and a pocket as well. Very versatile, you can use it as a purse or a clutch. Does not feel heavy and is very sleek to carry. Definitely picking up in another color!

Bigger than I thought
Color: Black
I love this bag! The magnetic closure is strong. I kinda overfilled my bag and with a little bit of adjusting, it kept closed. I fit my mini wallet, tin of Altoids, set of keys, mini bottle of perfume, box of cigs and lighter. I even had enough space for my phone and charger. The chain strap is a little uncomfortable but it's removable, so no biggie.

Generous storage & accessibility
Color: Black
This purse is very soft and plain with no embellishments. It is not shiny. It is just what I wanted because it did not detract from my gown. It is very practical and convenient because the clutch opens fully at the top so that everything stored inside can be easily seen rather than having to reach in the top and feel around inside a small clutch. It worked perfectly for me and could be useful even in non-formal situations. The magnetic closure is adequate. Storage is generous.

Great bag
Color: Silver
Perfect silver bag for weddings. The material is very soft and not cheap or fake looking. The clutch fits more items than most evening bags. I can fit glasses, large phone, lipsticks , tissues. Opens and closes well. The only small issue I have with it is although I like having the chain shoulder strap for hands-free the strap is a little too thick and heavy, and it kinks a little bit. A smaller thinner more delicate chain would be better, but otherwise, a very nice bag. I highly recommend
