Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky
In B♭ major, range F2 to B♭4
Before the curtain rises on the Christmas party, this little overture sets the mood: quick and light, on tiptoe, like toys about to come to life. Tchaikovsky wrote it without cellos and double basses, which keeps the whole orchestra small and bright.
