The Sleeping Beauty

Album by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky

The Sleeping Beauty is a full-length ballet by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, premiered in 1890. The score exemplifies late-Romantic orchestration with expansive melodic writing and a variety of dance forms, and it occupies a central place in Tchaikovsky's output as one of his three large-scale ballets that charts his development in orchestral colour and ballet composition.
