Max Avelyevich Kyuss ({{lang-ru|Макс Авельевич Кюсс}}, March 20, 1874 – {{circa|1941–1942}}) was a Russian and Soviet musician, conductor and composer, primarily in the Russian and Soviet military. He is most famous for composing the waltz Amur Waves. Education and military serviceAccording to Kyuss's autobiography, he was born into a working-class Jewish family in Odessa on March 20, 1874. He was drafted into the Russian army and assigned to a squad of musicians. After doing mandatory service, he joined and graduated from the Odessa National Academy of Music, and in 1903 rejoined the army as a kapellmeister.[1] He served in the 2nd Eastern Siberian Rifle Regiment, and participated in the Russo–Japanese War of 1905. During his service, while stationed in Vladivostok, he composed his magnum opus, the waltz Amur Waves. From May 1, 1907 Kyuss served in the 11th Eastern Siberian Rifle Regument, and from January 1, 1911 in the 33rd Siberian Rifle Regiment. In this capacity he was stationed on Russky Island.

In 1920–22 he served in the same capacity in the 33rd Rifle Brigade in Odessa.{{citation needed|date=February 2018}} In 1922 he headed an orchestra in Kharkiv, and for a time headed the Kremlin honor guard—though according to his superiors, he was "politically backward", i.e. did not adhere enough to the Communist ideology—a problem for an officer so close to the government.[1] He retired from military command in 1927. He continued working as a military composer in the Joint State Political Directorate until 1934. Among other things, he was a kapellmeister during the construction of the Moscow Canal.
