Pyotr Bulakhov


Pyotr Petrovich Bulakhov (Петр Петрович Булахов, Moscow, 1822 — 2 December 1885, Kuskovo) was a Russian composer.

His father: singer Pyotr Alexandrovich Bulakhov (ru: Петр Александрович Булахов, (?1793 — 1837), his brother: singer and composer Pavel Petrovich Bulakhov (ru: Павел Петрович Булахов, 1824—1875).

His daughter was the opera singer Yevgeniya Ivanovna Zbruyeva (?1867-1936). (the composer did not formally issued a religious marriage with his wife, so both their daughters were officially daughters of their mother first husband and were under his name.)

Two of his songs were set as piano transcriptions by Franz Liszt. An unidentified "Bohemian Song" was arranged as "Chanson bohémienne", No. 2 of Deux Mélodies Russes, S.250 (1842–43). The song "You Will Not Believe" ("Ты не поверишь") was arranged for solo piano as Russischer Galop, S.478 (1843).
