Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov
663 books26 followersTraditional folk music heavily influenced operas and orchestral works of Russian composer Nikolai Andreyevich Rimsky-Korsakov.
This member of the group, known as "the five," mastered. His best-known Capriccio Espagnol, the Russian Easter Festival Overture, and the symphonic suite Scheherazade constitute staples of the classical repertoire alongside suites and excerpts from some of his 15 operas. Scheherazade exemplifies his frequent use of fairy tale and subjects.
Rimsky-Korsakov as fellow Mily Balakirev and critic Vladimir Stasov developed a classical nationalistic style. This style employed song and lore alongside exotic harmonic, melodic, and rhythmic elements in a practice, known as orientalism, and eschewed traditional western methods. Rimsky-Korsakov, a professor of harmony at the Saint Petersburg conservatory in 1871, however, appreciated western techniques. He undertook a rigorous three-year program of self-education and mastered western methods, incorporating them alongside the influences of Mikhail Glinka and fellow members of the five. His exposure to the works of Richard Wagner further enriched his techniques.
