		Against this background it becomes clear that for Stasov and the Saint Petersburg composers, the creation of a conservatory represented an anachronism and an obstacle to the development of a national culture.
		The stylistic devices which the Saint Petersburg composers and their mastermind Stasov had seen as a realistic expression of a national musical culture were integrated into a strict l'art pour l'art principle by Dyagilev and Stravinsky; their Russian origin was secondary to the abstract but, through adornment and movement, quasi-eroticised forms.
		Stasov was all too aware that Russian opera had to tackle these topics if it was to occupy a leading place in the context of European cultures.

	Program Notes
		Prokofiev’s conducting professor at the Saint Petersburg Conservatory, Nikolai Tcherepnin, was a contrarian in this regard, and encouraged his students to immerse themselves in the works of Haydn and Mozart to see what wisdom they could extract for their own compositions.
		Prokofiev would later explain that his intent was to translate musical classicism into a specifically twentieth-century idiom: “It seemed to me that if Haydn had lived into this era, he would have kept his own style while absorbing things from what was new in music.
		SERGEI SERGEIEVICH PROKOFIEV was born in Sontsovka, in the Ekaterinoslav district of Ukraine, on April 23, 1891, and died in Moscow on March 5, 1953.

	Chicago Symphony Orchestra - November 13, 14, 15, 18: Barber/Elgar/Prokofiev
		Prokofiev composed this concerto in the winter and spring of 1913 and played the piano solo at the premiere on September 5 of that year, in Pavlovsk, outside of Saint Petersburg.
		Prokofiev quickly grew bored and disillusioned with the stodgy school atmosphere; he was an unusually rebellious student, and he did poorly in his classes with Rimsky-Korsakov and Liadov, the two most distinguished teachers at the conservatory.
		When Prokofiev came to this country in 1918, he left the score of his Second Piano Concerto in his Petrograd apartment, where it eventually was used by the new tenants as fuel "to cook an omelet," as the composer's friends later informed him.

	Nikolay Andreyevich Rimsky-Korsakov : Sheherazade, Op.35 & The Tale Of Tsar Saltan, Op.35
		He several times refused directorship of the Moscow Conservatory, instead continuing to teach in Saint Petersburg.
		The symphonic suite Sheherazade was composed by Rimsky-Korsakov in the winter of 1887 - 1888, taking as its literary inspiration excerpts from Tales of the Arabian Nights, the fascinating series of stories told by the beautiful Sheherazade in an effort to postpone her execution at the orders of her royal master.
		In his own description of Sheherazade Rimsky-Korsakov rebuts the notion that his themes are, in general, connected solely to particular events in the Arabian Nights, although the sinuous oriental solo violin melody is associated with the story-teller herself.
