TH 172 I Remember AllЯ помню всеRomance by Elizaveta Tamovskaia (in a transcription for solo piano by Aleksandr Diubiuk), arranged for piano duet (?1866/67).
HistoryNo information has survived concerning this arrangement of Elizaveta Tamovskaia's romance "I remember all", to words by Aleksei Pleshcheev, made from a transcription for solo piano by Aleksandr Diubiuk. It seems likely that the arrangement was made during the period 1866–67 when Tchaikovsky was friendly with the Tamovskii family. Shortly after arriving in Moscow, Tchaikovsky shared his impressions of the city with his brothers Anatolii and Modest in a letter of 30–31 January 1866: "I’m finding my way around a little better (usually by accident), but all the people are very nice. In particular I have become acquainted with the Tamovskiis, husband and wife, who are very rich, and terribly fond of music. Mme Tamovskaia composes romances which are performed by Nikol'skii — I Remember All, Why?, etc. [1]. Herman Laroche wrote that the romance I Remember All, "enjoyed considerable fame in the sixties... and echoed through many hundreds of Russian homes" [2]. Published by Petr Jurgenson in 1868. From: Музыкальное наследие Чайковского
