A piece of music for eight voices or eight instruments would be called an octet. Some noted octets have been written by Beethoven, Mendelssohn, Schubert, Stravinsky, and Steve Reich.
Russians go together with ballet. Tchaikovsky wrote three major ballets, "Swan Lake," "The Sleeping Beauty" and "The Nutcracker." Prokofiev wrote "Romeo and Juliet" and "Cinderella." Stravinsky wrote "The Firebird," "Petroushka" and "The Rite of Spring." All these ballets are still performed. In addition other compositions by these men, especially Tchaikovsky and Stravinsky, have been choreographed as ballets even though they were not intended as such originally.
