Tchaikovsky 1-Day Seminar July 14
John Gibbons
It’s that time again, when we gather to enjoy a full day exploring a single topic. This time: Tchaikovsky.
Description:
With his profound melodic gift, Tchaikovsky entranced audience after audience and provided us with a living soundtrack for 19th century Russia. This course will give Tchaikovsky his due as a Russian nationalist and reveal how gracefully he navigated between the sometimes rough-hewn Slavocentrism of his contemporaries and the technical demands of Western cosmopolitanism.
