In 1857, Mussorgsky left Cadet school and entered the Prebrazhensky Regiment of the Guards. A year later he convinced composer Balakirev to give him composition lessons, but in 1858, Mussorgsky suffered a nervous or spiritual crisis and left the guards to return home. He continued to compose but his music did not gain popularity.
Mussorgsky began working for the Russian government and completed the historic opera, Boris Godunov which was at first rejected by theatres. At the same time that he was finishing Boris Godunov, Mussorgsky was working on a second opera Khovanshchina.
Through music, Mussorgsky wanted to portray life however rough and beautiful but when Mussorgsky died, he left many of his works unfinished. Russian composer Rimsky-Korsakov took on the task of editing and publishing Mussorgsky's music.
