The Mighty Five was not a band. It was a term invented in 1867 by the Russian music critic, Vladimir Stasov, to describe a circle of composers who typified the Russian spirit in music. The five were Mily Balakirev, Alexander Borodin, Cesar Cui, Modest Mussorgsky and Nicolai Rimsky-Korsakov. They tended to compose in a more deliberately Russian style than Piotr Tchaikovsky, who was composing at the same time or Mikhail Glinka, the first true Russian composer of symphonic music, who was the forebear of all the others. The group was variously known as The Five and The Mighty Handful.
