Donald Macleod explores 1877, the year of Tchaikovsky's disastrous marriage.

Donald Macleod explores 1877, the year of Tchaikovsky's disastrous marriage, in which he also produced Eugene Onegin and Symphony No 4.

Donald Macleod takes a series of snapshots of a period that lay at the centre of Tchaikovsky's creative life, from 1876 to 1890.

In 1877, Tchaikovsky took a sudden decision to get married. He wasn't the first or last homosexual man to do so, but the repercussions were calamitous, and the event triggered a crisis from which some believe Tchaikovsky never fully recovered. However, this was also the year of two superlative pieces of music, both awash with references that listeners have since interpreted as autobiographical.

Smetana's popular opera The Bartered Bride is represented by the Overture and three folk dances. Dvorak played the viola in the first performance of the opera, and 20 years later composed his Eighth Symphony, brimful of Bohemian flavour.
