Evdokia Konstantinovna Antonova. Due to the circumstances of Alexander's birth, the nobleman had him registered as the son of one of his Russian <a href="/wiki/Russian_serfdom" class="mw-redirect" title="Russian serfdom">serfs</a>, Porfiry Borodin, hence the composer's Russian last name. As a result of this registration, both Alexander and his nominal Russian father Porfiry were officially serfs of Alexander's biological father Luka. The Georgian father emancipated Alexander from serfdom when he was 7 years old and provided housing and money for him and his mother. Despite this, Alexander was never publicly recognized by his mother, who was referred to by young Borodin as his "aunt".<sup id="cite_ref-Lewis_9-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Lewis-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Despite his status as a commoner, Borodin was well provided for by his Georgian father and grew up in a large four-storey house, which was gifted to Alexander and his "aunt" by the nobleman.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEDianin19639_11-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEDianin19639-11"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Although his registration prevented enrollment in a proper <a href="/wiki/Gymnasium_(school)" title="Gymnasium (school)">gymnasium</a>, Borodin received good education in all of the subjects through private tutors at home.

It contains the <i><a href="/wiki/Polovtsian_Dances" title="Polovtsian Dances">Polovtsian Dances</a></i>, often performed as a stand-alone concert work forming what is probably Borodin's best-known composition.

It is set in the 12th century, when the Russians, commanded by Prince Igor of Seversk, determined to conquer the barbarous <a href="/wiki/Kipchaks" title="Kipchaks">Polovtsians</a> by travelling eastward across the Steppes. The Polovtsians were apparently a nomadic tribe originally of Turkic origin who habitually attacked southern Russia. A full <a href="/wiki/Solar_eclipse" title="Solar eclipse">solar eclipse</a> early during the first act foreshadows an ominous outcome to the invasion. Prince Igor's troops are defeated. The story tells of the capture of Prince Igor, and his son, Vladimir, of Russia by Polovtsian chief Khan Konchak, who entertains his prisoners lavishly and orders his slaves to perform the famous 'Polovtsian Dances', which provide a thrilling climax to the second act. The second half of the opera finds Prince Igor returning to his homeland, but rather than finding himself in disgrace, he is welcomed home by the townspeople and by his wife, Yaroslavna. Although for a while rarely performed in its entirety outside of Russia, this opera has received two notable new productions recently, one at the Bolshoi State Opera and Ballet Company in Russia during 2013, and one at the Metropolitan Opera Company of New York City during 2014.<sup id="cite_ref-32" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-32"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>31<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-Abraham_5-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Abraham-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Chamber_music">Chamber music</h4><span class="mw-editsection"> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Alexander_Borodin&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: Chamber music" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> <span class="minerva-icon minerva-icon--edit"></span> <span>edit</span> </a> </span> </div> <p>No other member of the Balakirev circle identified himself so much with <a href="/wiki/Absolute_music" title="Absolute music">absolute music</a> as did Borodin in his two string quartets, in addition to his many earlier chamber compositions.

This early period yielded, among other chamber works, a string sextet and a piano quintet.
