Summary: The plays of William Shakespeare were one of the major literary influences on the composers of the nineteenth century, including Tchaikovsky, who wrote fantasy overtures based on three of them. Two of these, to Hamlet and The Tempest, are seldom heard today, but the third, the Romeo and Juliet Fantasy Overture, has become one of the most popular orchestral compositions ever. The psychological drama of youthful passion and thwarted love consummated in death was an ideal theme for Tchaikovsky, resonating through many of his subsequent works.
”Ms. Sims is a confident, mature performer who plays with great lyricism at such a young age.”-Joe Gimbel, Dir. HHSO Youth Concerto Competition
