It is not
widely known that the
popular composer Petr
Ilyich Tchaikovsky was
also a music critic, nor
that he was professor of
musical theory and
harmony, instrumentation
and free composition at
the Moscow Conservatoire
(1866-1878). His teaching
there bore fruit in the
form of the 'Manual for
the practical mastering
of harmony' printed in
Moscow in 1872. This
textbook played an
important part in Russian
musical training: it was
written before the
manuals by
Rimsky-Korsakoff and
Arensky and is thus the
very first originally
Russian book of harmonic
theory, which may be of
interest and of some use
to readers today.
