Balakirev in reality
Based on a real story set time in a Peter The Great era.
Ivan Alexandrovich Balakirev was a trusted servant of Peter I and Catherine I since 1699. In the time of the empress Anne he became an official court buffoon.
One of the version around the Balakirev surname etymology is that it formed from Bala kire, a tatar for stubborn kid.
Ksenofont Polevoy published a book entitled Collection of anecdotes by Balakirev, using the real name of Ivan Balakirev as his pseudonym. It's in fact a collection from various people and sources.
