The 'Yakutian themes' of this concerto are thus explained:

'Taught at the Iakutsk Music School from 1953. His residence in Iakutsk, the coldest place in Siberia, in 1953 and his premature death there remain unexplained by official sources. Probably a Gulag inmate in Iakutia where there were many camps at the time.'

… music is not only an `entertainment’, nor a mere luxury, but a necessity of the spiritual if not of the physical life, an opening of those magic casements through which we can catch a glimpse of that country where ultimate reality will be found.  RVW, 1948
