| Description: While visiting his sister in Little Russia (an area of Southern Russia better known as the Ukraine) Tchaikovsky was inspired to compose his 2nd symphony based on songs from the region. This March uses simple chromatics, hooked, staccato and marcato bow strokes to make this charming work an excellent teaching piece for young orchestras. Perfect for contests! |
