Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky: To regret the past, to hope in the future, and never to be satisfied with the present: that is what I spend my whole life doing... The Nutcracker, Swan Lake, and The Sleeping Beauty, Tchaikovsky wrote and composed my favourite ballets. Now very well recognised all over the world, Tchaikovsky was not always successful in his musical career. His teachers thought he had no talent, critics for a long time felt that his music was distasteful. Tchaikovsky s masterpieces only gained recognition after his death, becoming some of the world s most popular ballets. Tchaikovsky epitomizes not only the Russian spirit but also the human spirit, and has been a constant source of inspiration. Forever love to Pyotr Ilyich #Tchaikovsky #T
