Waltz of the Flowers

from The Nutcracker

This charming waltz is one of the most played from The Nutcracker. Pay attention to how Tchaikovsky adds thirds in the right hand (starting on page 20) to sweeten the melody in the left hand. Also, feel free to slow the tempo as you wish at the rubato—just be sure to return to your original pace at the a tempo.

Romeo and Juliet

(Theme)

Shakespeare has long served to inspire composers, such as Mendelssohn and Verdi. Tchaikovsky wrote an orchestral piece based on the tragic story of Romeo and Juliet. You’ll find that he uses accidentals to portray the emotion of the work, such as the D in the right hand at the end.
