Vasily Kalafati (10 February [O.S. 29 January] 1869 – 20 March 1942) was a Russian composer and pedagogue of Greek descent. He was a pupil of Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov at the Saint Petersburg Conservatory, and would also teach there between 1907 and 1929. His own students included Alexander Scriabin, Igor Stravinsky and Heino Eller. He died during the German siege of Leningrad in World War II. Although largely forgotten after his death, Kalafati was one of the most important composers in Russia during his lifetime, composing in a style which resembled that of Rimsky-Korsakov.
