The Rachmaninov Society USA was developed to build bridges of understanding between countries, cultures and peoples. Sergei Vaselyevich Rachmaninov was born in Russia in 1873 and died in the United States of America in 1943. He was a composer, conductor, concert pianist with a great concern for humanitarian needs and the use of music as a dialogue of peace and understanding. In 1938 with Alexandra Tolstoy, daughter of the great writer Leo Tolstoy, he helped found Tolstoy Farm in New York for people who had lost most everything and needed to rebuild their lives. We wish to develop a program of student exchange, masterclasses, artists helping artists, community concerts and discussions to share the philosophy and techniques of the Russian Piano School and the life and works of Sergei Rachmaninov as a great artist with a good heart.
