Serenades for Strings

Album by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky & Antonín Dvořák & Ukrainian Chamber Orchestra & Theodore Kuchar

Serenade for Strings is a composition by Russian composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, composed in 1880. Scored for string orchestra, it features lyrical melodies, dance-inflected movements and Romantic harmonic language, and it occupies a place in Tchaikovsky's output as a comparatively intimate orchestral work following his larger-scale symphonies and ballets.
First released: 1994
