Autorenporträt
Nikolay Rimsky-Korsakov (1844–1908) was a Russian composer, teacher, and editor who played a significant role in the development of Russian classical music. As a member of 'The Five,' a group of composers dedicated to producing a distinctly Russian style of classical music, Rimsky-Korsakov embraced the rich tapestry of Russian folklore, literature, and history in his compositions. His work is characterized by vivid orchestral colors and an innovative use of harmony, which has influenced both his contemporaries and successors. Although he composed numerous symphonies, operas, and chamber works, his enduring contribution to the field of music is embodied in his book 'Principles of Orchestration.' This work, published posthumously in 1913, is a seminal theoretical treatise that continues to be an essential text for students and professionals in orchestration. It presents practical methods for orchestrating music, all the while highlighting how to achieve a desired sound effect. Rimsky-Korsakov's pedagogical approach and his masterful insight into the capabilities of orchestral instruments contribute to the depth and clarity of this influential book. His virtuosic technique and his commitment to educating a new generation of composers cemented his legacy as a pillar of Russian classical music and a scholarly guide in the art of orchestration.
