Alexander Porfirevich Borodin. (№ 462589)

It should be noted that I am generally a composer looking for the unknown; I am somehow ashamed to admit to my composer activity. This is understandable. For others, it is a direct matter, a duty, the goal of life; for me, it is relaxation, fun, a whim, distracting me from my direct, real business - professorship, science.
