  Tchaikovsky
 Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky Russian
Composer (1840-1893)
Tchaikovsky became a serious composer in his mid
teens, before continuing his study at the St. Petersburg Conservatory. After
Piano Concerto No.1 was played in Boston, Tchaikovsky became widely popular,
producing commissions on a regular basis. Although he led a controversial
personal life, his work continued to show greatness, as seen in the works of
“The Queen of Spades” and the ballet “The Nutcracker.” Known for his harmonies
and picturesque orchestration, Tchaikovsky transformed the ballet genre into the
grandly-staged musicals of today.
