Pyotr Tchaikovsky: Incessant Fate

Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky became the most famous and performed Russian composer in the world during his lifetime. Recognizing his own calling and gift early on, he steadfastly pursued his goal — music, in which he was absolutely candid and confessional.... His life was filled with joys, tragedies, passions, and disappointments, and he was in constant search for answers to the "fateful questions of existence" about life and death, sin and forgiveness. Tchaikovsky's fate was an endless struggle, confrontation, and sometimes submission to the "incessant fate" that pursued him, which can be felt in one form or another in almost all of the composer's works.
The book is based on authentic materials and documents, and it is also a continuation of years of research into the life and creative heritage of the composer, which began immediately after his death and has been carried out by several generations of scholars.
