LUDWIG VANBEETHOVEN
ANTONÍN LEOPOLD
DVOŘÁK
Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky did not begin studying music seriously until the age of 22. Until then, he had only taken a few piano lessons. After graduating from preparatory school, he became a clerk in the Russian Ministry of Justice.
While working for the government, he wrote a song and began considering music as a career. At 22, he left his job and entered the musical conservatory of St. Petersburg, Russia, where he studied composition and orchestration. Upon graduation from the conservatory, he moved to Moscow and became an instructor of music theory at the Moscow Conservatory of music where he began composing.
Tchaikovsky completed his first symphony in 1868 (age 28) and his first opera a year later. Both were successful with Russian audiences. He also began writing music for ballets. In 1878, he married his wife Antonina, but the marriage was a failure and he soon left her.
After Tchaikovsky’s marriage failed, a wealthy widow, Nadezhda von Meck, began supporting him financially. This enabled him to leave his teaching position and devote himself full-time to composing. It also allowed him to travel to the musical capitals of Europe. Madame von Meck supported Tchaikovsky for thirteen years on one condition: that he never attempted to meet her. For the first few years, Tchaikovsky composed much music, but from 1881 to 1888, he traveled extensively and wrote very little.
In 1888 (age 48), the Russian government recognized Tchaikovsky’s talents and gave him an annual salary for life. He then spent two years touring Europe as an orchestral conductor. In 1890, Madame von Meck ended her financial support. Although Tchaikovsky no longer needed the money, he was greatly hurt by this; he felt that his greatest supporter had abandoned him.
Tchaikovsky made an extended visit to the United States in 1891 (age 51). He conducted an orchestral performance of one of his most famous works, the 1812 Overture, at the grand opening of Carnegie Hall in New York City. He found the United States exciting, both musically and intellectually. When he returned to Russia, however, he was once again depressed over the loss of support from Madame von Meck. He died in St. Petersburg during a cholera epidemic.
Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky was a handsome and vain man who agonized over his music. He always had the feeling that it was never good enough, and that the audience would not like it. He alternated between periods of writing and traveling. When he was writing he had a daily routine: he would work from 9:30 to 11:00 in the morning, have lunch, take a walk, and work again from 5:00 to 7:00 in the evening before dinner. Without financial support from others, Tchaikovsky might have spent his entire career as an instructor at the Moscow Conservatory.
