Program Notes

This music comes from Tchaikovsky's great ballet Swan Lake written in 1876. Based on Russian and German folk tales, the ballet was initially a flop but has become one of the most famous ballets in music history. This short arrangement displays Tchaikovsky's masterful touch and beautiful use of orchestral colors. This arrangement fades away, as the little swans float away offstage.
