Vadim Salmanov
Born: 4th November 1912, Saint Petersburg, Russia
Died: 27th February 1978, Saint Petersburg, Russia
Nationality: Russian
Vadim Nikolayevich Salmanov was a Soviet composer and pedagogue.
Salmanov learned to play the piano as a child from his father who was a professional metallurgical engineer. Exposed to composers from the Baroque, Classical, and Romantic periods, Salmanov quickly grew fond of music and was quickly enrolled in music theory courses at the age of six. However, following the passing Salmanov's father, he went to work at a factory and soon became interested in the topic of hydrogeology.
At 18, he was about to attend the Leningrad Conservatory when he decided to study hydrogeology instead, eventually working as a geologist until 1935 when he finally decided to attend the Conservatory where he studied composition with Mikhail Gnesin following his attendance at a piano concert by Soviet pianist Emil Gilels.
