From The Pavilion, Bournemouth Tchaikovsky's original intention was to call this work ' A Programme Symphony,' although he never intended to reveal the programme, which was to remain a morbid and melancholy introspective secret. When it was complete, however, Tchaikovsky realized that he had wiitten perhaps the finest work of his career, and he sought the opinions of his friends regarding it.
