"Glinka is widely acknowledged as the father of Russian Music..A trip to the Caucasus in 1823 exposed him to local music and dances against a backdrop of spectacular scenery and galvanised him into researching Russia's own musical traditions. Whether in grand operas or shorter pieces, his settings of tuneful dances were his hallmark...Kamarinskaya, another hugely influential work (Tchaikovsky wrote that the 'Russian symphonic school is all in Kamarinskaya, just as the whole oak is contained in the acorn')."
