Soon after the premiere of the ballet “Sleeping Beauty,” Tchaikovsky considered compiling a suite but after much discussion with friends he eventually declined. However, he did repeatedly mention that the renowned conductor and arranger Alexander Ziloti would be the one for the job if anyone else were to take it: “He is generally sympathetic to my music.” Tchaikovsky passed away in 1893 with no suite created until 1899 which does appear to have been arranged by Zioloti. The “Sleeping Beauty Suite” is today’s Midday Masterpiece at 2:00 pm on CapRadio Music.
