DARGOMIJSKY, ALEXANDER SERGEIVICH (1813-1869) ,
Russian
  composer, was born in 1813, and educated in St Peters-burg. He was already known as a talented musical
amateur
  when in 1833 he met Glinka and was encouraged to devote him-self to
composition
 . His
light
 
opera
  Esmeralda was written in 1839, and his Roussalka was performed in 1856, but he had but small success or recognition either at
home
  or abroad, except in Belgium, till the 'sixties, when he became one of Balakirev's circle. His
opera
  The
Stone
  Guest then became famous among the progressive
Russian
  school, though it was not performed till 1872.
Dargomijsky
  died in January 1869. His compositions include a number of songs, and some orchestral pieces.
