Editing Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov (section)

===Smaller-scale works===
Rimsky-Korsakov composed dozens of [[art song]]s, arrangements of folk songs, chamber and piano music. While the piano music is relatively unimportant, many of the art songs possess a delicate beauty. While they yield in overt lyricism to Tchaikovsky and Rachmaninoff, otherwise they reserve their place in the standard repertory of Russian singers.<ref name="mfw21409"/>

Rimsky-Korsakov also wrote a body of choral works, both secular and for Russian Orthodox Church service. The latter include settings of portions of the ''Liturgy of St. [[John Chrysostom]]'' (despite his own [[atheist|atheism]]).<ref name="abrarus27">Abraham, ''The New Grove Russian Masters 2'', p. 27.</ref><ref>Abraham, ''Studies in Russian Music'', 288</ref><ref>Morrison, pp. 116–117, 168–169.</ref>
