Pjotr Iljitsj Tchaikovsky is famous for his fantastic moving melodies. Different to many of his other romantic Russian contemporaries, Tchaikovsky had a particular feel for the European music taste of music, which made him immensely popular. In this accessible compilation, arranger Wil van der Beek uses a selection of Tchaikovsky’s most beautiful melodies from works including Capriccio Italien, String Quartet No. 1 and his famous Piano Concerto No.1.

Pjotr Iljitsj Tsjaikovski staat bekend om zijn fantastische, treffende melodieën. Anders dan veel van zijn Russische tijdgenoten uit de romantiek had Tsjaikovski veel gevoel voor de Europese muzieksmaak, waardoor hij immens populair werd. Voor deze toegankelijke compilatie heeft arrangeur Wil van der Beek een selectie van Tsjaikovski’s mooiste melodieën gebruikt, uit de werken Capriccio Italien, het Strijkkwartet nr. 1 en het beroemde Pianoconcert nr.1.

Peter Iljitsch Tschaikowski ist berühmt für seine fantastischen, bewegenden Melodien. Im Gegensatz zu vielen anderen seiner russischen romantischen Zeitgenossen hatte Tschaikowski ein besonderes Gespür für den europäischen Musikgeschmack, was ihn ausgesprochen populär machte. In dieser Zusammenstellung verwendet der Arrangeur Wil van der Beek eine Auswahl von Tschaikowskis schönsten Melodien aus dem Capriccio Italien, dem Streichquartett Nr. 1 und seinem berühmten Klavierkonzert Nr. 1.

Piotr Ilitch Tcha kovski est connu pour ses magnifiques mélodies émouvantes. Au contraire de la plupart de ses collègues russes au style romantique, Tcha kovski avait une aptitude particulière pour le go t de la musique européenne, ce qui le rendit très populaire. Dans ce medley la portée de tous, l’arrangeur Wil van der Beek incorpore une sélection des plus belles mélodies de Tcha kovski, comme celles du Capriccio Italien, du Quatuor cordes n°1 et son célèbre Concerto pour piano n°1.

Auringon talo (The House of the Sun) is a tragedia buffa, chamber opera in two acts for 10 singing roles, orchestra, synthetiser and strings. The opera tells about twin sisters Riina and Noora who abandoned the splendour of their upper-class St Petersburg home together with their family in the wake of the Russian revolution, and fled to Finland.

In the the old age the sisters escape from the sad greyness of their everyday life into the memories of their youth. This is the vocal score by the composer (with his original handwriting) with Finnish text.
