Perhaps Mr. Brett Langston can help.
We know of the activities as conductor of Tchaikovsky (of his
compositions and other composers).
But is there a list of all concerts conducted by Tchaikovsky (with the
programs and cast) and you know which of his compositions he has directed
(a complete list reliable of course)?
Thank you!

Every occasion on which Tchaikovsky conducted his own composition is
mentioned on the appropriate page in our
Works section. The piece he conducted most often (12 times in fact) was
1812, but he
wasn't confined to his own works. Those by other composers that he
conducted were:

I'd have loved to hear Tchaikovsky conduct Beethoven's Ninth!
