"Kabalevsky, like Prokofiev and Shostakovich, wrote a great deal of music for the emerging genre of films with sound. It was during the 1930s that Kabalevsky s style was defined; although Prokofiev served as a model to a certain extent. Kabalevsky's most valuable legacy lies in the field of children s music, not only in terms of the many works he wrote for young performers but also in his development of a system of musical education for children. Some of his children s songs became musical symbols of the Soviet age (Chetvyorka druzhnaya rebyat ( The Band of Four Friends ) and Shkol?nïye godï ( Schooldays ) in particular) while several of his numerous instrumental concertos written for young musicians gained worldwide popularity." Dina Grigor?yevna Daragan in Grove Music Online. Alexsandr Kostomolotsky (1897-1971) was an actor, artist, and musician who was friends with both Kabalevsky and Shostakovich, of whom he also drew several portraits and caricatures.
