Vladimir Ryabov is a Russian composer born on September 15, 1950, in Chelyabinsk, Russia. He studied at the Moscow Conservatory, although he was expelled twice due to his non-conformist attitudes.

His compositional works span a variety of genres, including chamber music, sacred choral music, organ pieces, symphonies, and more. Notably, his Symphony No. 4 is dedicated to the memory of Brahms.
