This is a bit morbid, but an amazingly extensive list. There are some really beautiful reading sites used in this list and some really interesting information. I’ve never read about Chopin’s resting place in Warsaw before although I’ve been a huge fan for ever. Thank you.
Glinka is not the only composer at the Nevsky Monastery in St Petersburg. Next to him is Tchaikovsky, Bortnyansky, Rimsky-Korsakov, Glazunov, Kachaturian. Arkhanhelsky among others
