“As a composer seeking to remain anonymous I am shy of confessing my musical activity. This is intelligible enough. For others it is their chief business, the occupation and aim of life.

I love the Academy and my pupils, male and female, because to direct the work of young people, one must be close to them.” PeopleEnoughYoungActivityFemaleDirectAimMalesMusicalSeekingProfessionChiefsShyOccupationComposerPrincipalRelaxationAcademyPupilsPastimeConfessingAim Of LifeProfessorship Author:Alexander Borodin
