| Molchanov graduated from the [[Saint Petersburg]] Conservatory, where he had studied in [[Rimsky-Korsakov]]'s class, in 1887. In [[Odessa]] he taught first at a music school and then at the city's conservatory. Towards the end of 1892, Molchanov sent Tchaikovsky an orchestral work of his, and the latter promised in his reply that he would perform it at one of the concerts he was due to give in [[Odessa]] the following year. At the Russian Musical Society concert in [[Odessa]] on 23 January/4 February 1893, Tchaikovsky duly conducted Molchanov's '' Ukrainian Scherzino''.
