Description

From his mid-twenties until his untimely and mysterious death at the age of 53, Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky created compositions of remarkable beauty and melodic richness such as his best-loved opera Eugene Onegin, the ballets Swan Lake and The Nutcracker, the great piano and violin concertos, and his incomparable Sixth Symphony, the Pathetique. The origins and inspirations for this great music are explained in this lively biography, fully illustrated with contemporary artwork and photographs of the important people, places, and events of the composer's life.
