TchaikovskyÊ1/4s Sixth Symphony (1893), widely recognized as one of the worldÊ1/4s most deeply tragic compositions, is also known for the mystery surrounding its hidden programme and for TchaikovskyÊ1/4s unexpected death nine days after its premiere. While the sensational speculations about the composerÊ1/4s possible planned suicide and the suggestion that the symphony was intended as his own requiem have long been discarded, the question of its programme remains.
