They say KZbin's recommendations are bad, but then KZbin recommends this video when it's at 687 views :D So awesome to see you doing lectures in English!

Same here!! I'm talking my English exam (IELTS) this Saturday 🥰

[@AnnaVilenskaya]

How'd the exam go?

[@AnnaVilenskaya]

Thank you! E.M. is something of a role model for many of us. Привет школе Мравинского! Если будете проходить ее пешком - там в атриуме есть аквариум с рыбками, заходите поглазеть) Ну, если он до сих пор там стоит, в чем я, кстати, не уверена...

In the English Wikipedia, there is a little bit more information about the origin of Rimsky-Korsakov's last name: "By a Tsar's decree on 15 May 1677, 18 representatives of the Korsakov family acquired the right to be called the Rimsky-Korsakov family (the Russian adjective 'Rimsky' means 'Roman') since the family "had a beginning within the Roman borders", i.e. Czech lands, which used to be a part of the Holy Roman Empire.[9] In 1390, Wenceslaus Korsak moved to the Grand Prince Vasily I of Moscow from the Duchy of Lithuania."

Wow! Thanks for the tip. By the way, using the English-language wikipedia is a great idea, I'll take it under advisement!
