One of the most famous and significant operas by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky is considered to be "Eugene Onegin".

 

For a little over 140 years, Pushkin's masterpiece - Tchaikovsky's "Eugene Onegin" has maintained its high repertoire rating.

 

The original idea to write an opera based on the plot of Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin did not come to Tchaikovsky himself. The famous opera singer of that era, Elizaveta Andreevna Lavrovskaya, whose talent Tchaikovsky had deep respect for, prompted the composer to turn to the plot of Pushkin's novel. At the very beginning, the very idea and plot did not attract Tchaikovsky's attention, but the more he immersed himself in the lines of Pushkin's work, the more he "obeyed an invincible inner attraction" to work with this material.

 

“Let my opera be not staged,” he wrote to his brother Modest, “even if there is little action in it, but I am in love with the image of Tatyana, I am fascinated by Pushkin’s poems and write music on them because I am drawn to this.” It is this passionate, sincere impulse and great enthusiasm of the composer that create in his opera a special charm of sincere immediacy, freshness and warmth of expression.
