Tchaikovsky (Almost) in Love
About this ebook
It was a classical case of what might have been, in a different time. And Tchakovsky’s ambivance may well have inspired the under-current of sexual frustration in his love-torn opera Eugene Onegin.
Tchaikovsky (Almost) in Love is a multimedia play about all that and more, written in a classic verse mode that recalls Shakespeare.
