Presents Tchaikovsky's Double Life: Musical Misfit
Tuesday May 12 at 1:30pm
Maple Room
Tchaikovsky did not begin his musical training until he was an adult. His studies in European style composition, coupled with his use of Russian style folk melodies, produced a fusion that is celebrated as brilliant today, but was savaged by both European and Russian music critics of his time. In our biographical hour we will learn of his early life and then we will hear his highly melodic, emotional and somewhat melancholic music that is so loved today. All are welcome to join us on Tuesday, May 12 at 1:30pm in the Maple Room.
