This piano sonata was kept in his portfolio together with his Scherzo for piano, a fairly short composition, when he was consulting his teacher Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov about his ambition to be a composer. It was eventually composed partly in Saint Petersburg and partly in Pavlovka,[disambiguation needed] in Samara.
