myaskofiev 2 @madigan_melvyn Alexander Glazunov (10 Aug 1865-1936) was St.Petersburg Conservatory Director from 1906-28. He always renounced his salary to needy students. As Rimsky said: "Who but Glazunov would have done that?" Moreover, only his personal intervention enabled Jewish students (such as Heifetz) to study.
