| | Mikhail Glinka - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Glinka also composed many art songs, many piano pieces, and some chamber music. | | | A much lesser work that received some attention in the last decade was Glinka's "The Patriotic Song", supposedly written for a contest for a national anthem in 1833; the music was adopted as the national anthem of the Russian Federation during 1990-2000. | | | Glinka in turn admired Berlioz’s music and resolved to compose some fantasies pittoresques for orchestra. |

| | Glinka was also interested in the popular music and dance of Spain, where he lived from 1845 to 1847, which inspired the overtures Jota Aragonesa and Night in Madrid (1851). | | | The music of his second opera, Russlan and Ludmilla (1842), based on a poem by the Russian poet Aleksandr Pushkin, was also drawn largely from Russian folk music. | | | Glinka established himself as the founder of the Russian national school of music, which was subsequently carried on by such composers as Aleksandr Borodin, Modest Mussorgsky, and Nikolay Rimsky-Korsakov. |

| | Glinka again used Russian sources, but he also employed Eastern music and Viennese dance music. | | | The two major musical influences in his life were the folk music that he grew up with in the country and the operas of Vincenzo Bellini and Gaetano Donizetti. | | | This highly original music is interlarded, however, with set pieces in the ubiquitous Italian operatic style of the time. |

| | Glinka has wedded this patriotic theme to inspiring music. | | | His melodies, moreover, show distinct affinity to the popular songs of the Russians, so that the term "national" may justly be applied to them. | | | This was the turning point in Glinka's life -- for the work was not only a great success, but in a manner became the origin and basis of a Russian school of national music. |

| | Among his works are the operas A Life for the Tsar (Zhizn za tsarya) and Ruslan and Lyudmila, with a libretto written by Aleksandr Pushkin, the overture to which is often played in concerts. | | | Glinka was the first Russian composer to gain wide recognition outside his own country, and is often regarded as the father of Russian music. | | | His work was an important influence on future composers from that country, notably the members of the Mighty Handful, who took Glinka's lead and produced a distinctively Russian kind of classical music. |
