The fifth movement of one of this composer's choral works, a setting of the Nunc dimittis in his native language, demands a low B-flat of the basses. That piece, whose most famous movement is "Bogoroditse Devo," is properly called his All-Night Vigil but is often referred to as his Vespers. An intermezzo appears after the thirteenth variation in his piece based on the tune "La Folia," Variations on a Theme of Corelli. In another set of variations, an introduction and the first variation appear before the theme, and the famous eighteenth variation features an inversion of the theme in D-flat major. That work, written for piano and orchestra, derives its theme from a violin caprice. FTP, identify this Russian composer of Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini.
