His earliest compositions were written while he was a student at the Moscow Conservatory, including the pieces that would comprise Piano Concerto No. 1, Youth Symphony, Prince Rostislav, which was a symphonic poem, and The Rock, which was an orchestral fantasia.
Trivia
He fled Russia because of the 1917 Russian Revolution and spent a year performing in Scandinavia, eventually coming to the United States where his final years would be artistically and personally fulfilling.
Family Life

He married Natalia Alexandrovna Satin on May 12, 1902, and they parented two children together.
