That's by Alexander Borodin. It's the nocture from the opera Prince Igor, also famously included in the set of Polovetsian Dances taken from that opera.
Thank you so much! Now I need to hunt down a CD, if possible. :)
the whole set of Polovetsian dances is about 12 minutes long, but I found a track of just that theme for sale in the iTunes store.
