Tchaikovsky, Russian,1840 was born in a well-off family of mine technicians on May 7th. Tchaikovsky was particularly interested in music since he was a child. Father bought a musical bell for home, and the little guy saw it as if he saw something precious. Towards midnight, he sat quietly on a small bench with his chin in his hands and his big eyes flashing, waiting for a piece of music to ring when the bell rang.
