(1,0 point) May 7th 1840 was the birthday of one of the most famous Russian composers of the nineteenth century: Peter Illich Tchaikovsky. The son of a mining inspector, Tchaikovsky studied music as a child and later studied composition at the St. Petersburg Conservatory. His greatest period of productivity occurred between 1876 and 1890, during which time he enjoyed the patronage of Madame von Meck, a woman he never met, who gave him a living stipend of about $1,000 a year. Madame von Meck later terminated her friendship with Tchaikovsky, as well as his living allowance, when she herself was facing financial difficulties. It was during the time of Madame von Meck's patronage, however, that Tchaikovsky created the music for which he is most famous, including the music for the ballets of “Swan Lake” and “The Sleeping Beauty”. Tchaikovsky's music, well known for its rich melody and sometimes melancholy passages, was one of the first that brought serious dramatic music to dance. Before this, little attention had been given to the music behind the dance. Tchaikovsky died on November 6, 1893, ostensibly of cholera, although there are now some scholars who argue that he committed suicide. 1. With what topic is the passage primarily concerned? A. The life and music of Tchaikovsky. B. Development of Tchaikovsky's music for ballets. C. Tchaikovsky's relationship with Madame von Meck. D. The cause of Tchaikovsky's death. 2.
