The disease (assuming you mean Korsakoff syndrome) is not named after the composer but after Sergei Korsakoff who identified it (also – please allow Rimsky-Korsakov as an answer for this). It is very misleading to claim that Mussorgsky wrote a "Romeo and Juliet" – all he did was make a piano arrangement of Berlioz's music.

I agree about Rimsky-Korsakov spelling. I have never seen it spelled with an i.

A couple of issues:

There are no set titles for the movements of a symphony. They are designated by their tempos (usually), and vary accordingly. The minuet as a third movement was "phased out" as the symphony evolved during the early Romantic era.

Rachmaninoff's fame as a virtuoso pianist came during the 20th century, (so-called 'modern'). He actually did little concertizing in Russia before coming to America after the revolution of 1917. HIs family was very poor in Russia, so it is interesting that he ultimately became one of the highest paid performers of his time.

Oh, perhaps Rimski-Korsakov is the Dutch spelling! Thank you for your input and corrections! :)
