One orchestral work by this composer has a main theme based on the notes "F - E-natural - D-flat - C - B-flat". A programmatic symphony by this man opens with the title character's theme stated immediately by a bass clarinet and three bassoons. That piece by this composer depicts the title hero wandering in the Alps and lamenting Astarte, and was based on a poem by Lord Byron. Another piece by this composer of the Manfred Symphony is a march written for Serbs wounded in fighting the Ottomans. He wrote an overture that opens with four cellos and two violas playing the hymn "God preserve they people", quotes both "God save the Czar" and "La Marseillaise", and calls for cannon fire at its conclusion. For 10 points, name this Russian composer of the Marche Slave and the 1812 Overture.
