Alexei Stanchinsky
Russian composer and pianist Alexei Vladimirovich Stanchinsky was born in Obolsunovo on 21 March 1888. His teachers included Sergei Taneyev, often by correspondence only, at the Moscow Conservatory.
He showed huge promise as a musician, but suffered from ill health during his short life, and was generally considered to be unstable.
Alexei Stanchinsky died mysteriously, from drowning, near Logachyovo, on 6 October 1914, aged only twenty-six. It isn't known whether or not he took his own life.
