Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky

The music was written for a ballet.

Tchaikovsky's favorite animal was the swan. This fondness is reflected in his famous ballet "Swan Lake," which features swans as central characters. His admiration for the bird symbolizes grace and beauty, resonating with the themes of his music. The swan also represents the duality of light and darkness, a recurring motif in Tchaikovsky's works.

Tchaikovsky raised ballet music to a new level with lyrical melodies and rich orchestration.

The Nutcracker by Tchaikovsky made its first debut on the 18th of December in 1892. It was originally choreographed by Marius Petipa and Lev Ivanov with a score by Pytor Llyich Tchaikovsky.

Tchaikovsky conducted his Festival Coronation March at the opening concert of Carnegie Hall, in New York City, in 1891.

The tempo of Tchaikovsky's "Marche Slave" is generally marked as Allegro, which indicates a fast and lively pace. The piece features a range of dynamics and rhythmic variations, but it maintains an energetic and celebratory character throughout. The tempo contributes to the overall dramatic and patriotic feel of the work, especially in the climactic sections.

Cholera, which he contracted by drinking unboiled water during an epidemic.

Prokofiev composed many famous works including: Five piano concertos, two violin concertos, two violin sonatas, seven symphonies, two cello concertos, Love for Three Oranges opera, and the Romeo and Julliet ballet.

Since Tchaikovsky's primary accomplishment was the writing of a great deal of music, the greatest accomplishments would be a matter of taste and opinion. He is best known for works like The Nutcracker, specifically the suite from that ballet, the 1812 Overture, the First Piano Concerto, and the Romeo and Juliet Fantasy Overture. Many of his other works are also popular, and hold firm places in the standard repertory.

He married Antonina Miliukova, but his brief time with his wife drove him to emotional crisis, which resulted with a stay in Clarens. Switzerland, for rest and recovery. They remained legally married, but they never lived with each other.

He wrote what we call classical music including operas, string quartets, piano sonatas, concertos for different instruments, program music, symphonies, and ballets. That's the type of music he wrote, but the style he wrote in was Romantic.

He lived in Votkinsk a small town in Russia.

According to author Ian MacDonald, in his essay "Prokofiev, Prisoner of the State," Sergey Prokofiev decided to compose a neutral children's piece as a move to avoid further political condemnation (from Soviet authorities) of his works. Peter and the Wolf -- which, notably, features Peter as a Young Pioneer (a member of the Soviet youth organization) -- was the result of this effort.

It obviously depends on how quickly it is played, so it will vary somewhat. But roughly: The first movement is about 19 minutes, the second is 7 and the finale is about 10 minutes. That is 36 minutes, give or take.
