S. Rachmaninov - Polka for V.R. Op. 343 - T. Dokshizer trumpet Bb
#dokshizer #докшицер #рахманинов Sergei Rachmaninov (1873 - 1943) - Polca for W.R. Op.343 Timofei Dokshizer - trumpet & arrangement Sergei Solodovnik - piano The title to this piece may strike the listener as a bit odd, but the story behind it is even odder and has involved considerable confusion. The work is often billed as "Polka on a Theme by W.R.," the "W.R." standing for Wasily (usually spelled Vasily) Rachmaninoff, the composer's father. Understandably, many have thus assumed the theme in this Polka was written by Wasily, but it was in fact composed by Franz Behr, and used in his once widely known Lachtäuben, Op. 303. Apparently, the young Rachmaninoff had heard the amateur-pianist Wasily play Behr's polka and assumed it was his father's composition. Сергей Рахманинов (1873 - 1943) - Полька В.Р. оп.343 Тимофей Докшицер - труба и аранжировка Сергей Солодовник - фортепиано Это транскрипция польки композитора Бэра, которую часто играл отец Рахманинова Василий (отсюда и инициалы в названии - В.Р.). Видимо по ошибке Рахманинов воспринял эту польку как написанную его отцом, а не Бэром, поэтому поместил его инициалы в названии. Написана в начале 1910-х годов, посвящена Леопольду Годовскому.
