Swan Lake

Album by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky & Orchestra of the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden & Mark Ermler

Swan Lake is a ballet by Russian composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, first performed in 1877. Its lush Romantic orchestration, prominent thematic writing and use of leitmotifs for characters exemplify Tchaikovsky's approach to ballet composition and establish the score's central place in both the ballet repertoire and orchestral concert programmes.
