Completed in 1880, the Slavonic March was composed the same year as two of Tchaikovsky's greatest and most frequently performed works — the powerful Symphony No. 4 and the delightful Capriccio Italien. This Russian warhorse more than holds its own in such attractive company, boasting numerous current recordings. Ideal for study in the classroom, at home, or in the concert hall, this affordable miniature-score edition offers music lovers, performers, and students an opportunity to study Tchaikovsky's masterful orchestration of one of his best-known works.
