Richard's father was Pierre (Peter) Rivinac, who was born and grew up in Metz, France, Alsace-Lorraine. His mother was an accomplished soprano. His father was from the Revenach family of prominent builders of church organs in Germany. Pierre was attending the Paris Conservatory when he left France for America in 1852. He established himself as a Professor of Music at a girl's school in Memphis, Tennessee, until he began to publish and sell musical compositions prior to and during the Civil War. Today, his Civil War era compositions, marches and dances, are collectible.
