The body of the famed composer was returned to Valhalla, new York where he is buried today. His great-great-granddaughter says his remains will stay here. The Russkies sure are a funny lot. What chutzpah! "Bring home a favorite son,he's ours". Ha,ha.
State house organ TASS Agency says his grave is unkempt. Ha. Have a video? A foto? No. We're the FSB- we don't need no stinking fotos.
Sergei Rachmaninoff left his native Russya in 1917. Why? To escape the Bolsheviks/Communists who would stop at nothing to take power from the czarist regime. He was smart enough to know that no good would come with a takeover by the Marx-spewing thugs from the back alleys of Moscova.
In addition to other evidence, Mr. Rachmaninoff became an American citizen in January, 1943. Any body in their right mind would acknowledge that the last place an American wants to be buried is Russya.
What are the chances of exhumation and reburial in some godforsaken steppe plot, froazen over most of the year? None. I liked the comments of another dillusional Russkie, Valery Poliansky, head of the Rachmaninov Society of in Moscova. "Nobody in America needs him; America doesn't need anyone, except itself". This man obviously has been a recipient of vast quantities of state-issued vodka.
Much of this reportage comes our way via Sophia Kishkovsky in Moscova, and we thank her for her efforts at explaining the absurdities of life in VoVa's Russya today: absurd.
