Excerpt from Musorgsky, the Russian Musical Nationalist
The Russian School resembles no other, either in history or in character. It suddenly blossomed forth in the middle of the nineteenth century, after a germinative period whose history can only be traced back with difficulty, but whose fruit ripened almost as soon as it appeared. Before the school was even fifty years old, it constituted a quite independent, homogeneous and extensive art. The case is so rare as to be at first discon certing. It is not only the rapidity Of growth which astonishes us, but also and especially the general excellence and the distinctive qualities which are common to nearly all the works exempli tying this school.
