Mily Alexeievich Batakirev ' The importance of the part he played in the evolution of Russian music is so great as to preclude all possibilities of comparison and entitles him to the first place in the history of Russian music after Glinka.'

(TCHAIKOVSKY) This week's programmes are drawn from the comparatively small output of the composer who put so much of his creative energy into teaching and encouraging his fellow composers, even to the extent of being accused of interfering.
