Balakirev
Russian composer. Taken in hand early by M. Glinka, he himself later became the mentor of Cé sar Cui (1835-1918) and M. Mussorgsky. In 1861-62 their group expanded to become the Mighty Five. In 1862 he cofounded the Free School of Music. After a nervous breakdown in 1871, he adopted a fervent and bigoted form of Orthodoxy, and was thereafter involved in musical life only sporadically. His works include two symphonies, the piano fantasy Islamey (1869), music for King Lear (1861, 1905), and a piano concerto. With his brilliant color and use of folk themes, he was perhaps the most influential proponent of Russian nationalism.
