Drawing extensively on Tchaikovsky's uncensored letters and
diaries, this biography explores the composer's life in the
artistic culture of nineteenth-century Russian society, revealing
how he became a figure of international renown. Yet his success
came at a price, and Tchaikovsky found the social obligations that
his fame entailed burdensome. Setting aside cliches of the composer
as a tortured homosexual and naively confessional artist, this
engaging biography paints a vivid picture of Tchaikovsky. It
contains accessible introductions to his key compositions, as well
as suggesting less familiar works for readers to explore, making it
essential reading for all those who enjoy classical music.
