Sadko, Op.
 5, is a "musical tableau" by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov, written in 1867 and revised in 1869 and 1892.
 It is sometimes called the first symphonic poem written in Russia.
 It was first performed in 1867 at a concert of the Russian Musical Society (RMS), conducted by Mily Balakirev.
 Rimsky-Korsakov later wrote an opera of the same name which quotes freely from the earlier work.
 From the tone poem the composer quoted its most memorable passages in the opera, including the opening theme of the swelling sea, and other themes as leitmotives - he himself set out to "utilize for this opera the material of my symphonic poem, and, in any event, to make use of its motives as leading motives for the opera".

 Composed between 1894 and 1895, Rimsky-Korsakov based his opera on a short story, "Christmas Eve", from Nikolai Gogol's "Evenings on a Farm Near Dikanka".
 The story had been used as the basis for an opera at least three times previously, including for Tchaikovsky's "Vakula the Smith" (1874).
 Oliver Knussen writes that "Rimsky is only interested in recreating the atmosphere of the folk-tale, fleshing it out for his stage pageant in a comparable way to Humperdinck in "Hansel".
