The Sleeping Beauty ballet in 3 acts, which tells the story of conflicting forces of good and evil, incorporates various fairy-tale characters from the Brothers Grimm and French fairy tales. Tchaikovsky's (1840-1893) longest ballet, the work was met with a favorable response following the January 15th, 1890, premiere at the Imperial Mariinsky Theatre in St. Petersburg, but the composer would not live to see the work become the mainstay of the ballet repertoire that it has enjoyed for over one hundred years. The popular Waltz, No. 6 from Act I, takes place as the introduction to Princess Aurora as a dance on her sixteenth birthday. Instrumentation: 2+Picc.2+EH.2.2: 4.2+2.3.1: Timp.Perc(1): Str (9-8-7-6-5 in set).
