A Naxos Musical Journey: Tchaikovsky: Ballet Music (2002)

This volume floats on Tchaikovsky's famed Pathetique symphony and ballet music from his celebrated opera Eugene Onegin. From blossoming botanical gardens to the bold architectural wonders of the Kremlin and Red Square; from the legendary Pushkin Theater to the dramatic site of the Odessa Steps immortalized in Eisenstein's classic film The Battleship Potemkin; from breathtaking views of the Black Sea to the calm of a sleeping city on a winter night; this is the world that inspired the eternal genius of Tchaikovsky.
