Tune of the Day: Waltz from Eugene Onegin

by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, arranged for solo flute

This beautiful waltz is taken from the beginning of Act II of Tchaikovsky's lyric opera Eugene Onegin, first performed in 1879. The main theme (starting at measure 39 of our transcription) is a very catchy one; one may well wonder from where did Tchaikovsky get such an endless supply of tunes!

Thanks to Kent for suggesting this piece!
