Comes to America Rachmaninoff first came to Am- erica in 1909 as a composer-pianist, playing then with the Boston Sym- phony Orchestra. His success was, according to the late and very great pianist, Leopold Godowsky a little embarrassing to him. the: Russian had been devoting hlm- self largely to composition, and in public played chiefly his own music. So when it became evident that Rachmaninoff was to have a career in America as a virtuoso, he turned up. with his help much of the music he later played for American audi- ences.
