The Seasons, Op. 37 Russian: ŠŃŠµŠ¼ŠµŠ½Š° Š³Š¾Š“Š°; published with the French title Les Saisons), is a set of twelve short character pieces for solo piano by the Russian composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky. Each piece is the characteristic of a different month of the year in the northern hemisphere. Following is a translation of the poetic epigraph contained in the Russian edition (all chosen by the publisher Nikolay Bernard) for September:
It is time! The horns are sounding! The hunters in their hunting dress are mounted on their horses; in early dawn the borzois are jumping.
Parts of this piece are reminiscent of the horn call in the 1812 overture. Fun for each player.
