18 Pieces for Piano, Op. 72
Nocturne in C sharp minor, Op. 19/4

The letter in which Peter Tchaikovsky reports to his brother about the completion of the 18 Piano Pieces Op.72 reads like a dry rapport, no trace of joy or even pride. The almost classical understatement of the composer becomes all the more clear the more one deals with the 18 pieces. Tchaikovsky modestly failed to mention that the piano cycle is bursting with poetic luminosity, melodic beauty and a vital variety of moods. The German-Uzbek pianist Nuron Mukumi shows this wonderfully in his recording.
