Tchaikovsky’s matchless melodic gifts are amply demonstrated in this vibrant new collection of orchestral works. Taking its title from the composer’s ever-popular creation for cello and orchestra, it also features the sprightly Pezzo capriccioso, Op. 62; the lyrical Andante cantabile (from String Quartet No. 1, Op. 11); and the haunting Nocturne (from Six Pieces, Op. 19). All reproduced from authoritative editions, these much-loved works will delight performers and listeners alike.
