Mily Alexeyevich Balakirev



Russian composer Mily Alexeyevich Balakirev (1837-1910), pianist and conductor. He is known today primarily for his work promoting nationalism in Russian music. Working in conjunction with critic Vladimir Stasov, Balakirev brought together the composers now known as The Five, encouraging their efforts and acting as a musical midwife for both them and Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky. Balakirev's own music is generally not well known today. The exception to this is Islamey: an Oriental Fantasy, which is still popular among pianists.
