Sergei Rachmaninoff rarely smiled in public, so you may think that he was dour. This tribute will show you otherwise. This is the Rachmaninoff of about the mid to late 1920s. He’s smiling and you can see his love for his granddaughters. And, as one of his friends once reported, he’s polite. He says “thank you” frequently.
