COMPLETE PRESENTATION: LOOK THE FIRST PINNED COMMENT
Clair van Ausdall: "(...) Tchaikovsky's idea was to compose a work for full string ensemble. as opposed to the string quartet, and he added to the printed score a suggestion that the more instruments used, the closer would the performance come to his intent. All four movements are simple in form and graceful in workmanship; if indeed there were any problems in their creation. we are happily unaware of them. First comes a Pezzo in forma di sonatina. The sonatina pattern is at last hinted at, which is as much as we need, and the melodic material is so lovely that it is continuously interesting. An introduction for the full choir leads to an expressive first theme in the violins, a second section full of busy staccato pattern, some lighthanded flirting with the development of each theme, and a repetition of the A and B sections. The introductory material returns as a kind of coda, The second movement, a Valve, has become so popular in the light classical repertory that it seems almost odd to encounter it in its original place. Graceful. buoyant, and elegant, its themes, to quote Mr. Ralph Wood, "stick" easily in the mind. Almost all the way through, the first violins play them, sometimes with an intertwining countermelody in the second violins. The third movement is a touching Elegy distinguished by a cantilena melody that reminds onc of the celebrated slow movement of Tchaikovsky•s first string quartet ("Andante Cantabile") except that it is richer and more varied. This movement is, like the Valse frequently performed alone and equally deserves its fame. The finale is prefaced by a slow introduction based on a folk tune sung by the Volga boat haulers, but its main theme is a vigorous scurrying dance, broken toward the end by a restatement of the introduction to the first movement; soon the scuttle breaks out again, however, and the finish is rollicking and swift.

The Serenade is dedicated to Konstantin Albrecht, a cellist who was an early colleague ac the Moscow Conservatory and one of the few friends to whom Tchaikovsky remained devoted throughout his life."
