Autorenporträt
Nikolay Rimsky-Korsakov (1844-1908) was a pivotal figure in Russian classical music, particularly during the Romantic period. As a member of the 'Mighty Handful', a group of five Russian nationalist composers, Rimsky-Korsakov dedicated himself to developing a distinct national style of classical music. He was not only a prolific composer, but also an esteemed teacher and theorist. His theoretical work, 'Principles of Orchestration' ('Grundlagen der Orchestration'), stands as a monumental testament to his pedagogical commitment and deep understanding of musical textures. This seminal text, completed by his student Maximilian Steinberg, offers invaluable insights into the art of orchestration using examples from Rimsky-Korsakov's rich repertoire. Known for his meticulous approach to composition and orchestration, his works often feature vibrant colors and expert use of woodwind and brass, a testament to his profound influence on the Russian orchestral tradition. Rimsky-Korsakov's literary contribution extends beyond textbooks, as he also penned an autobiography, 'My Musical Life', which not only illuminates his own career but also offers an intimate look at the musical milieu of 19th-century Russia. His extensive oeuvre, which includes operas such as 'The Golden Cockerel' and 'Sadko', as well as symphonic works like 'Scheherazade', embodies the quintessence of his rich harmonic language and imaginative orchestration, making him an indelible icon in the realm of the classical music canon.
