Though his talent for the instrument was obvious from an early age, his parents encouraged him to work hard at school so that he could have a practical, sensible job. But it was at the keys of his piano where he felt most at home. After graduating from school and working for the government for three years, Tchaikovsky decided that he had to follow his dream and began studying music. He honed his craft, studying with some of the best composers in his country, and went on to create some of most famous pieces of music ever written, such as \u003cem\u003eSwan Lake\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eThe Nutcracker\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eToday, Tchaikovsky is regarded as one of the most influential musicians to have ever lived. His music, with its emotional, soaring melodies, is some of the most recognisable in classical music, and has been played in concert halls and theatres across the world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eISBN 9781805701989\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e32 pages, 240 x 195 mm\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Maria Isabel Sanchez Vegara","offers":[{"title":"Hardback \/ Frances Lincoln Children's Books","offer_id":51391310200996,"sku":"9781805701989","price":22.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0588\/7200\/4772\/files\/9781805701989.jpg?v=1782681814","url":"https:\/\/bookreps.co.nz\/products\/little-people-big-dreams-tchaikovsky","provider":"Bookreps NZ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
