À la brume by Rebikov has been misspelled as À la brune

I have corrected the references on the page itself, but could one of the mods please move it to its correct title.
Thanks

Hi,
Although almost every modern Francophone would understand "À la brune" as "To the brunette", in old, literary French it means "At the sundown". This is what the Russian title "? ????????" means.

So I think the correct French title is "À la brune" (as it is on page 1 of the file), and not "À la brume" ("In the mist") (as written, erroneously, on page 2 of the file).
Pierre.

Pierre, I agree with that assessment and had not seen this composition/page before. The title has been corrected.

Just as a related aside, the second of Cui's 24 pieces for violin and piano called Kaleidoscope has the title "Dans la brume."

Do you know the Russian title of your Cui?

There's also Catoire's ''? ????????'' - in French "Chants du crépuscule"...

No, I recall seeing only the French title for that particular piece.

I knew Richard III had a kingdom, but Cui?
