In 1790, he performed two of his own works in Moscow with a serf orchestra; Kashin went on to direct this ensemble in the 1790s. He was liberated from serfdom in 1798, and thereafter was one of the more important players in the musical life of Moscow. He often conducted concerts involving extremely large forces - choirs of 300 and orchestras of 200 players. Kashin was a dedicated collector of Russian folk songs. Some of his works make use of folk melodies, patriotic themes, and other nationalistic elements. He composed five operas, a piano concerto, additional pieces for piano, songs, and choir works. Most of his works are now lost.
