    Composer, pianist, and conductor. At the Moscow Conservatory, he studied composition under Hubert, Taneyev, and Tchaikovsky, and piano under Karl Klindworth. Subsequently, he was drawn to the nationalistic elements of the New Russian School (The Mighty Handful), and in 1885, he studied under Balakirev. From 1893, at the request of the Imperial Russian Geographical Society, he collected folk songs with Balakirev and Lyadov. As a result of this activity, he composed works such as the Solemn Overture on Russian Themes and piano pieces (Op. 11-8, Op. 41-3), utilizing these musical materials. Loving all things Russian, he left behind lyrical and colorful pieces in his songs and miniatures, earning him the moniker "miniaturist of sound." He was interested in piano virtuoso works and, influenced by Balakirev and Liszt, left behind technical piano pieces such as 12 Etudes, Op. 11. He also dedicated himself to arrangements, such as orchestrating Balakirev's Islamey.
