''The Tempest'' (Russian: Буря ''Burya''), Symphonic Fantasia after Shakespeare, Op. 18, is a symphonic poem in F minor by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky composed in 1873.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://en.tchaikovsky-research.net/pages/The_Tempest )〕 It was premiered in December 1873, conducted by Nikolai Rubinstein.〔 It is based on the play ''The Tempest'' by William Shakespeare. Similar in structure to Tchaikovsky's better-known ''Romeo and Juliet'' fantasy-overture, it contains themes depicting the stillness of the ship at sea, the grotesque nature of Caliban, and the love between Ferdinand and Miranda. The love music is particularly strong, being reminiscent of the love music from ''Romeo and Juliet''. Tchaikovsky was much influenced by Shakespeare: in addition to ''Romeo and Juliet'' and ''The Tempest'', he also wrote a ''Hamlet'' overture-fantasy (1888) and incidental music to ''Hamlet'' (1891). Excerpts from the score were used in the 2005 ballet ''Anna Karenina'', choreographed by Boris Eifman. The work is not related to Tchaikovsky's overture/symphonic poem ''The Storm'', Op. posth. 76, written in 1864. ==Instrumentation== Piccolo, 2 Flutes, 2 Oboes, 2 Clarinets (B♭), 2 Bassoons + 4 Horns (F), 2 Trumpets (F), 3 Trombones, Tuba + Timpani, Cymbals, Bass Drum + Violins I, Violins II, Violas, Cellos, Double Basses 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Tempest (Tchaikovsky)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
