Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov fue un maestro de la orquestación y un defensor de un distintivo estilo musical nacionalista ruso, inspirado en canciones populares y leyendas. Si bien inicialmente abogó por un estilo que evitaba los métodos de composición occidentales, más tarde se volvió experto en técnicas occidentales tras unirse al conservatorio. Incorporó hábilmente elementos armónicos y melódicos exóticos, recurriendo frecuentemente a temas de cuentos de hadas y folclore. Sus obras, incluidas suites sinfónicas y óperas, siguen siendo pilares del repertorio clásico.

This collection for advanced solo piano contains 30 pieces (individually or in suites) by Alexander Borodin (1833-1877), Nikolay Rimsky-Korsakov (1844-1908), and Cesar Cui (1835-1918), members of the Russian Moguchaya Kuchka ("The Five"). The pieces include Borodin's seven-movement Petite Suite and Scherzo, Rimsky- Korsakov's Six Variations on a Theme by Bach and other works, and Cui's suite In Argentau.
