Only a few works from Pjotr Tschaikowski’s huge oeuvre have gained general acceptance, however, these are of such an enduring nature that the Russian is ranked among the great composers in the history of music. The way the world of music highlights especially his last three symphonies, his Piano Concerto No. 1, his opera Eugen Onegin and his Rococo Variations is nothing less than extraordinary. However, in comparison to his entire oeuvre, this selection can hardly be called representative.

“Superbly articulated playing is conveyed by a sumptuous, beautifully tailored sound which sets the 21 strings at just the right distance to marry detail with acoustic. The result is a cohesive whole which responds as well to fast music as to slow. The tonal purity of the sound is second to none.” (Ivor Humphreys, Gramophone)
