The Great Composer Quiz – October 9, 2020
Time’s up, pencils down, the porcelain child of a Great Composer who after forty-four years finally visited his childhood governess, in the final year of his life. He said, “This meeting gave me a dear pleasure.” This visit to Fanny Durbach, in the little Swiss town of Montbeliard, was made by Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky. She claimed that one time she found the boy sobbing in his bed, saying the music in his head would not leave him be.
