My favorite work by Piotr Tchaikovsky would be Capriccio Italien, and everybody loves the 1812 Overture; the only opera by Tchaikovsky that I have heard is Eugen Onegin, which I liked but I don't know it well enough to evaluate it. As for Swan Lake, with the Nutcracker, two of the world's greatest ballets, and he also did Sleeping Beauty... but it would be a challenge to me to name 10 ballets total! Vince
