Hayley Richard
1 Hayley Richard Tchaikovsky: Russia’s Most Popular Composer To many he was an inspiration; to more he was a legend--Pyotr Tchaikovsky, the great Russian composer. Leaving behind 7 symphonies, 11 operas, 3 ballets, 5 suites, 3 piano concertos, a violin concerto, 11 overtures, 4 cantatas, 20 choral works, 3 string quartets, a string sextet and more than 100 piano pieces, Tchaikovsky undoubtedly left his mark on the world. His strong emotion, appeal to technical skill, and dedicated work habits together give him his claim to fame as the most popular Russian composer of all time. One could argue that April 25th, 1840 was just an ordinary day in history, but to the music realm this date would serve as a hallmark as the infamous Pyotr Ilich Tchaikovsky was welcomed to the world. Born in Votkinsk, Russia as the second of six children to Alexander and Ilya Tchaikovsky, Pyotr had shown a clear interest in music from childhood. At just the mere age of four was when the first known attempt of his musical composition occurred, a song written with his younger sister Alexandra. What seemed a small, insignificant work at the time, would serve as the basis of countless pieces he would later compose. Like many of the most famous composers, Tchaikovsky’s family did not deem him to be a music genius until later in life. Instead Tchaikovsky’s parents “chose to prepare the high-strung and sensitive boy for a career in the civil service” (Poznansky). Nine years later, Tchaikovsky’s mother passed away from cholera; it would be then that Tchaikovsky’s father would realize his son’s true vocation and enroll him in piano lessons. -

RUSSIAN & UKRAINIAN Russian & Ukrainian Symphonies and Orchestral Works
RUSSIAN & UKRAINIAN Russian & Ukrainian Symphonies and Orchestral Works Occupying a vast land mass that has long been a melting pot of home-spun traditions and external influences, Russia’s history is deeply encrypted in the orchestral music to be found in this catalogue. Journeying from the Russian Empire through the Soviet era to the contemporary scene, the music of the Russian masters covers a huge canvas of richly coloured and immediately accessible works. Influences of folklore, orthodox liturgy, political brutality and human passion are all to be found in the listings. These range from 19th-century masterpieces penned by ‘The Mighty Five’ (Balakirev, Rimsky-Korsakov, Mussorgsky, Borodin, and Cui) to the edgy works of Prokofiev and Shostakovich that rubbed against the watchful eye of the Soviet authorities, culminating in the symphonic output of one of today’s most noted Russian composers, Alla Pavlova. Tchaikovsky wrote his orchestral works in a largely cosmopolitan style, leaving it to the band of brothers in The Mighty Five to fully shake off the Germanic influence that had long dominated their homeland’s musical scene. As part of this process, they imparted a thoroughly ethnic identity to their compositions. The titles of the works alone are enough to get the imaginative juices running, witness Borodin’s In the Steppes of Central Asia, Rimsky-Korsakov’s The Legend of the Invisible City of Kitezh, and Mussorgsky’s St John’s Night on the Bare Mountain. Supplementing the purely symphonic works, instrumental music from operas and ballets is also to be found in, for example, Prokofiev’sThe Love for Three Oranges Suite, Shostakovich’s four Ballet Suites, and Stravinsky’s Firebird Suite. -
