We visit Tchaikovsky's house at Klin, near Moscow, and travel south to Ukraine to see Sebastopol in the Crimea and Odessa.

He spent his childhood and adolescence in St. Petersburg, later moving to Moscow and finally finding some refuge in the country at Klin, where his house is preserved. The music accompanying our tour is Tchaikovsky's Violin Concerto and his Serenade for Strings.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e Picture format: NTSC 4:3 \u003cbr\u003e  Sound format: Dolby Digital \/ DTS Surround \u003cbr\u003e  Region code: 0 (worldwide) \u003cbr\u003e  Running time: 70 mins \u003cbr\u003e  No. of DVDs: 1\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Naxos AudioVisual","offers":[{"title":"DVD","offer_id":49731260973336,"sku":"747313553051","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0687\/4346\/3192\/files\/1402483.jpg?v=1788469218","url":"https:\/\/hbdirect.com\/products\/a-musical-journey-russia-and-ukraine-st-petersburg-seba","provider":"HBDirect","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
