"Tchaikowsky and His Orchestral Music" by Louis Biancolli is a book about analyses and backgrounds of most of Tschaikowsky's standard concert music. A sketch of Tschaikowsky's life precedes the section devoted to orchestral music. Yet, the personal outlook and moods of Russia's great composer are so inextricably bound up with his music, that actually the whole booklet is an account of his strangely tormented life. In the story of Tschaikowsky, life and art weave into one closely knit fabric.
