Russian Piano Music
Extraordinary new traditions of Russian music making followed the accession of a new tsar in 1855 who was anxious to foster the talents of of native Russian composers. All musical genres were affected, but one of the most momentous developments was the composition for the first time of great masterpieces of Russian piano music in a spurt of inspiration that did not die out until the 1950s. The best-known composers involved were Rachmaninov, Scriabin, and Prokoviev.
