Sadko, Op. 5, is a Tableau musical, or Musical picture, by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov, written in 1867 and revised in 1869 and 1892. It is sometimes called the first symphonic poem written in Russia.[1] It was first performed in 1867 at a concert of the Russian Musical Society (RMS), conducted by Mily Balakirev.[2] Rimsky-Korsakov later wrote an opera of the same name which quotes freely from the earlier work.[3] From the tone poem the composer quoted its most memorable passages in the opera, including the opening theme of the swelling sea,[3] and other themes as leitmotifs[4] – he himself set out to "utilize for this opera the material of my symphonic poem, and, in any event, to make use of its motives as leading motives for the opera".[5]
