(Redirected from Nikolai Vladimirovich Shcherbachov)
Nikolai Vladimirovich Shcherbachov (in Cyrilllic, Никола́й Влади́мирович Щербачёв; b. 12 August (N.S. 24 August) 1853; d. 1 October 1922) was a Russian composer and pianist.
Born in St. Petersburg, Shcherbachov was an uncle of fellow composer Vladimir Vladimirovich Shcherbachov, who was a second cousin of Andrei Vladimirovich Shcherbachov (1869-1916). Beginning in 1871 he was associated with the "The Five" (or, more broadly, the Balakirev circle).
He composed piano pieces, songs, and works for orchestra. In 1893 Shcherbachov contributed to a new edition of a collective work of the Balakirev circle that consisted of piano pieces based on the Russian version of "Chopsticks".
