  César Cui - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cui's more successful stage works during his lifetime were the one-act comic opera The Mandarin's Son (publicly premiered in 1878), the three-act Prisoner of the Caucasus (1883), based on Pushkin, and the one-act Mademoiselle Fifi (1903), based on Guy de Maupassant.
Cui died on March 13, 1918 from cerebral apoplexy and was buried next to his wife Mal'vina (who had died in 1899) at the Lutheran Cemetery in Smolensk.
Cui's works are not so nationalistic as those of the other members of The Mighty Handful; with the exception of Pushkin, his operas do not display a strong attraction to Russian sources.

 Cui bono - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cui bono ("Good for whom?", or "Who benefits?") is a Latin adage which means that the person or people guilty of committing a crime may be found amongst those who have something to gain, perhaps financially.
Although the principle is useful in criminal investigations, the party with the most to gain may not always be obvious, or the guilty party may distract attention by diverting attention on to a scapegoat.
Cui bono can be applied only in cases where some act was planned with the intention of obtaining a benefit.

 Composer   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
César Cui, one of the group of five nationalist Russian composers of the second half of the 19th century known as the Mighty Handful or the Five, was the son of a French officer who had remained in Russia after the retreat of Napoleon in 1812.
Cui's chamber music includes various shorter pieces for violin and piano or cello and piano, notably two sets of Miniatures for violin and piano, as well as three string quartets.
Cui claimed that he was compelled, in general, in his operas to avoid Russian subjects, since he was himself half French and half Lithuanian.

 Asia Pacific Arts: Cui Jian: Father of Chinese Rock 'N' Roll
Cui Jian is largely known in China as the father of Chinese rock 'n' roll because of his prominence in the music scene and the 1989 Tiananmen Square student movement.
Cui Jian is often compared to, depending on the referenced cultural historian, as the Chinese equivalent of John Lennon, Bob Dylan, and Kurt Cobain, among others; given his central influential role in the startup of China's rock scene, these comparisons are apt.
Cui Jian has had a profound impact on the incorporation of styles and the decentralization of current youth culture, and is simply known as the father of Chinese rock 'n' roll.

 B-297552, Computers Universal, Inc., February 14, 2006
CUI contends that its $20,000 quotation to make the KVTS operable was all-inclusive and included all necessary telecommunications charges, as evidenced by the fact that the quotation included the acquisition of new cell phone lines and testing (which could only be accomplished if there was an active telecommunications service).
CUI states that its quotation clearly indicated that the requested $7,000 increase in monthly telecommunications charges on its maintenance contract was completely separate from this work and that this charge would take effect after the system was made operable and the repair work was completed.
CUI’s claim that the costs for necessary telecommunications were included in its $20,000 lump sum quotation is consistent with its e-mails and quotation, given that the quotation expressly included the acquisition of new cell phone lines and testing of the system, which could not be done without an active telecommunications service.

Cui later published the score, with some slight changes, in 1911, dedicating it to the late Rimsky-Korsakov, Borodin, and Mussorgsky.

I became intensely fascinated with Cui Jian, not only because he was a bona fide icon of a hitherto unseen Chinese counter-culture, but even more so for the integrity with which he had indigenized a Western musical form.
Cui Jian soon started drawing attention with his songs.
After the success of the American shows, Cui Jian was agreeable and, given that he was in the process of changing management, it seemed an opportune moment to bring an American into his mix.

Cui RuiBin is a teacher who's very modest about his accomplishments but I truly feel his reputation deserves a much broader forum than the one he currently receives.

Although some YiQuan practitioners tend to downplay the importance of mocabu and even omit it from their training, I consider it to be an essential training method which deserves a lot of attention, so one should try to understand its value for combat.

But Cui was very busy throughout his long life, composing 6 operas, chamber music, orchestral suites, a violin sonata, more than 250 songs, all very melodious compositions which one can easily and unjustly dismiss with faint praise as being "charming".

 Cui Bono Revisited by Butler Shaffer
Cui Bono is not the rock musician who fashions himself mankind’s ambassador to the governments of the world.
Such an inquiry does not necessarily provide one with the correct answer but, like police investigators who focus upon the spouse of a murder victim as the initial suspect, it is a rational way to begin.
To raise such a possibility as a question to be examined is not to make an accusation, but only to follow the "cui bono" question to embrace all who might have so benefited.

In these two works Cui tried to follow the guidelines of the new Russian school with regard to realistic setting of Russian text and so on (as was being attempted ever so judiciously by Dargomyzhsky in The Stone Guest, which Cui helped to complete), but did not necessarily succeed.
Cui later published the score, with some slight changes, in 1911, dedicating it to the late Rimsky, Borodin, and Musorgsky.
