In Tchaikovsky's symphonic output his Symphony No. 4 was a pivotal work. It announced the composer as a major symphonist of his time overshadowing his previous less-than-distinguished efforts in this form and opened the way to his last major works: the haunting Fifth Symphony and the biographical Sixth the profound 'Pathétique.'Tchaikovsky's Fourth Symphony ? written in 1877 at the age of thirty-seven ? offers itself as an intensely personal statement. Dramatically shaped and brilliantly orchestrated it captures a theatrical quality and orchestral color that shaped the composer's symphonic fantasy Francesca da Rimini written just a year earlier. The Fourth opensunequivocally with the thrust of a brass fanfare ? the 'fate' motive that is to reappear in the last movement ? then flows with the effortless quality that characterizes Tchaikovsky's great generously melodious ballet scores. The second movement lingers over one of the composer's most poignant melodies and the third ? the Scherzo ? offers a delightful fantasy from this master orchestrator: the charming Pizzicato ostinato a unique moment in the entire orchestral literature.The symphony is reproduced here from the authoritative Breitkopf & Härtel edition with bar-numbered movements and ample margins at the bottom of each score page for notes and analysis. Ideal for study in the classroom at home or in the concert hall this affordable high quality conveniently sized volume will be the edition of choice for music students and music lovers alike.Reprint of the Breitkopf & Härtel edition.

Along with Swan Lake The Nutcracker represents one of Tchaikovsky's most popular and most-performed works. Based on E.T.A. Hoffman's The Nutcracker And The Mouse King the piece was commissioned in 1891 and first performed in St Petersberg the following year. The story of enchanted toys and Christmas magic has become a firm favourite and the piece was the first historically to make orchestral use of the Celesta. As a work of previously unrivalled orchestration the piece has become vital reading for those studying the development of the orchestra or important Romantic works.

One of the finest examples of symphonic orchestration in the Romantic repertoire Tchaikovsky's Symphony No.5 appears here in full score with bar-numbered movements and margins for notes and analysis.

Concert overture for orchestra, first performed in 2007 by the London Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Sir Colin Davis. The Times described the five-minute piece as 'an irreverent deconstruction of the two big works heard earlier - the Tchaikovsky 4th Symphony and Mozart's Elvira Madigan Piano Concerto, K467[...]? Stomp ?went through all sorts of wacky distortions before being whisked, ceilidh-style, into a punch-drunk jig of delight.? In response, the Financial Times commented, 'Imagine Mozart and Tchaikovsky in kilts, thrown into the middle of a highland fling.? / Orchestre

Par CAMPO REGIS. Un trailer per Cajkovskij (en italien : 'une bande-annonce pour Tchaikovsky') est une pièce ludique en forme d'hommage au grand compositeur russe, commandée par l'Orchestre symphonique de Turin. Cette oeuvre réjoint plusieurs de mes oeuvres orchestrales comme Lumen, Lumen II, Ouverture en forme d'étoiles, ma Symphonie #2 'Moz'Art' ou le petit Happy birthday qu'avait créé Felicity Lott et l'Ensemble Orchestral de Paris au théâtre des Champs-Elysées à Paris en 2003. La formation instrumentale, déjà fixée, du concert m'a permis étrangement (mais avec grande joie !) d'utiliser un célesta, un cor, tous les bois, les cordes. L'oeuvre fait des allusions thématiques (mais pas de citations textuelles) à certaines oeuvres majeures de ce compositeur, comme Casse-Noisette ou bien ces dernières symphonies que j'affectionne particulièrement.
