【Classical music and nature 古典音樂小站】Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky: The Seasons, Op. 37a for solo piano: 5. May: Starlit Nights (G major). This beautiful piece was presented by germanrecords. It is a royalty free music from Pond5.com.

The Seasons, Op. 37 (published under the French title Les Saisons), is a suite of twelve short character pieces for piano by the Russian composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky. Each piece is characteristic of a different month of the year in Russia. The work is sometimes also performed in orchestral and other arrangements by other composers.

Following is a translation of some of the poetic epigraphs contained in the Russian edition (all chosen by the publisher Nikolay Bernard):

Mai (May): Les nuits de mai (Starlit Nights)

What a night! What bliss all about!
I thank my native north country!
From the kingdom of ice, from the kingdom of snowstorms and snow,
how fresh and clean May flies in!
(Afanasy Fet)

The video was shot by Simone Schlegel in Faltschen, Swierzuland and was edited by Wenjing Ma.
