Music

Mainly music for violin.

Biography

Russian violinist and composer.

He was a serf, but by order of Prince Potemkin he gained his freedom in 1785.

He was the first composer - not only in Russia - who consequently based himself on folk-music for his compositions. In that respect he is the first ‘folklorist’ in the history of Western music.

English transliteration of his name: Ivan Evstaf’evich Khandoshkin.
