About This Show
Brilliant composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky springs to life through the hands and insight of piano virtuoso Hershey Felder, whose timebending tale of culture and repression explores the mystery surrounding some of the greatest music ever written. From the unforgettable ballets Swan Lake, Sleeping Beauty, and The Nutcracker, to the outrageous 1812 Overture and the brilliant symphonic works, this powerful musical tribute travels to Czarist times to ponder the inevitable enigma of genius. From the creator and performer of Hershey Felder as Irving Berlin and Beethoven As I Knew Him, George Gershwin Alone, Maestro: The Art of Leonard Bernstein and Monsieur Chopin.
PRODUCED BY SAMANTHA F. VOXAKIS, KAREN RACANELLI AND ERIK CARSTENSEN
