Konstantin Karlovich Albrecht (4 October 1836 – 26 June 1893) was a cellist in the Moscow Bolshoi Theater orchestra, a teacher and administrator.[1] Interested in choral music, he founded the Moscow Choral Society in 1878.[2] He also helped to found the Russian Musical Society and the Moscow Conservatory.[1]
Tchaikovsky and Albrecht met while both were working at the Moscow Conservatory. The two became friends, and Tchaikovsky dedicated his Serenade for Strings to Albrecht.[3] Tchaikovsky also contributed to Albrecht's Collections of Choral Pieces for Single and Mixed Voices. [4]
