		Mikhail Ivanovich Glinka (June 1 1804 - February 15 1857), was the first Russian composer to gain wide recognition inside his own country, and is often regarded as the father of Russian classical music.
		Glinka's compositions were an important influence on future Russian composers, notably the members of The Five, who took Glinka's lead and produced a distinctively Russian kind of classical 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 Russia during 1990-2000.

	Mikhail Glinka who wrote an opera that wasn’t so "ba Czar"
		Tchaikovsky often said {as he told about Glinka’s success to music composing}, that “Glinka blossomed in his thirty-fourth year.” Up until this time {after the two operas} what he (Glinka) wrote was trivial and bland, and he wasn’t a super star on the violin or any instrument for that matter either.
		Mikhail Glinka’s ideas of taking sounds of other countries (exoticism) and incorporating in into his own pieces paid off.
		If one were to really investigate Mikhail Glinka, one should listen to the group of art songs that he wrote towards the end of his life.

		Shebalin's edition and orchestration were ingenious and realistic, not damaging the authenticity of Glinka's noble ideas, while keeping the essence of his writing fully intact.
		The Capriccio brillante on the Jota Aragonesa and the Souvenir d'une nuit d'ete Madrid (Memory of a Summer Night in Madrid) are excellent surveys of Spanish music Glinka absorbed and admired during his visits to Spain, while the Overture leans on the spirit of Rossini (and Glinka travelled to Italy quite extensively).
		Russian composers after Glinka, especially Dargomyzhsky, never continued their composing careers without learning and in some respects, enhancing Glinka's technique in the use of folkmusic.
