| Summary | "Ma vie musicale" by Nikolay Rimsky-Korsakov is an autobiographical memoir written in the early 20th century. This work details the life and musical journey of the author, a prominent composer of the Russian national school of music. It likely explores Rimsky-Korsakov's personal experiences, influential relationships, and the evolution of music in Russia during his lifetime, focusing on the important collective known as the "Five," which includes famous contemporaries such as Moussorgsky and Borodine. The opening of the memoir introduces Rimsky-Korsakov's early years, emphasizing his exceptional musical talent from a young age. He recounts his developing passion for music amid his naval career, detailing pivotal encounters with key figures in the Russian music scene, particularly Balakirev and Moussorgsky.
