Dans sa Chronique de ma vie musicale, Rimski-Korsakov relate tout son parcours: de ses premiers souvenirs d'enfance jusqu'à deux ans avant sa mort. Cet officier de marine devenu compositeur se met constamment en regard avec tout ce que se fait en même temps dans le monde musical russe, et livre ainsi une somme d'informations de première main. Cette traduction française, la première intégrale, paraît à l'occasion du centenaire de la mort du compositeur.
Sans artifices, sans littérature superflue, toute la galerie de portraits de ceux qui ont fait exister la musique russe défile devant le lecteur, conférant une proximité humaine inattendue au fascinant et dictatorial Balakirev et à son groupe des Cinq dont Rimski-Korsakov a fait partie avec Cui, Moussorgski et Borodine, au critique et polémiste Stassov, au chef d'orchestre Napravnik, aux frères Anton et Nikolaï Rubinstein, à l'éditeur Belaiev, à Tchaikovski, Liadov, Glazounov, et tant d'autres. On pénètre aussi dans les coulisses des théâtres impériaux, observées avec une objectivité sans complaisance. Les oeuvres même de Rimski-Korsakov s'éclairent d'une abondance de détails qui en enrichit la compréhension. Et l'homme perfectionniste, critique envers soi-même comme envers les autres, réviseur parfois excessif de ses confrères (Moussorgski), révèle derrière son apparente austérité sa face sensible, son attachement aux traditions slaves ancrées dans le peuple et son émerveillement devant les beautés de la nature. Pédagogue au charisme généreux, il n'hésitera pas à payer de sa personne lors des évènements de 1905 en soutenant les étudiants en lutte contre la direction du Conservatoire. Derrière la haute et raide silhouette du magister intransigeant, c'est une belle personne qui se dessine à travers la sincérité et la probité de sa narration.
