Borodin was the illegitimate son of Prince Luka Guédianov and the daughter of a trooper Avdotia Antonova. His father did declare the child by one of his servants, Porphiri Borodin, in accordance with the use of time. Finally, he saw to it that the mother has always the means to ensure their children a comfortable life and excellent education. Self-educated, young Alexander learned to play very early in the flute and piano and cello with a friend, Mihail Shchiglev. From the age of thirteen, he composed a concerto for flute and piano and a trio for two violins and cello. His parents intend to pursue a medical career and is enrolled in the faculty at the age of fifteen.

In 1862, Borodin composed a Quintet in C minor. C was around this time that he joined the famous Group of Five. While sharing the basic ideas of the group, it proved less hostile than his classmates at the Germanic influence on Russian music. In December 1862, he begins writing his Symphony No. 1 in E flat major, which he completed in 1867. She does not receive a warm welcome. He will begin the composition of his Symphony No. 2 in B Minor in 1869. Nevertheless he feels predestined to the opera and the idea of Prince Igor made its way. Borodin is also continuing his scientific career. In 1877, he visited the laboratories of a number of German universities. On this occasion he met Franz Liszt in Weimar. Three years later, in 1880, Liszt gave a very successful Symphony No. 1 in E flat major. To thank him, Borodin dedicated to him his symphonic poem In the Steppes of Central Asia, very famous piece which was an immediate resounding success and sustainable. After deep ethnological and historical studies, he began writing the opera Prince Igor (which are from the famous Polovtsian Dances), completed after his death by Alexander Glazunov and Rimsky-Korsakov and created the Mariinsky Theatre in St. Petersburg Oct. 23 (Nov. 4) 1890. In March 1881, Borodin was deeply affected by the death of Mussorgsky. His physical condition is deteriorating. He suffers from several heart attacks and even cholera.
