| Summary | "The Life & Letters of Peter Ilich Tchaikovsky" by Modest Chaikovskii is a biographical account written in the early 20th century. The work is an exploration of the life and personal correspondence of the renowned Russian composer Peter Ilich Tchaikovsky. This biography delves into Tchaikovsky's character, family background, and artistic journey, revealing not just his musical achievements but also the intimate thoughts and feelings noted in his letters to friends and family. The opening of the book introduces Tchaikovsky's ironic attitude toward his noble lineage and his deep-rooted pride in his Russian heritage. Modeste Tchaikovsky provides an insight into the composer's early life, detailing his family's modest background and Tchaikovsky's early education. The narrative emphasizes his precocious abilities as a child, particularly in music, while also portraying the emotional struggles he faced, especially the profound impact of his mother’s absence from his life. It sets the stage for a deep understanding of not only Tchaikovsky's contributions to music but also the context of his life experiences that shaped his genius.
