Abstract

By examining several hundred pathographies of composers, we identified
numerous skin changes . We emphasize Rachmaninov’s melanoma. Notable
pathographies were studied in more details and shown chronologically by the
composers date of birth. Skin changes in composers were usually mild and
rarely fatal.

Keywords
