One to two paragraph needed.

“Tchaikovsky and Women in Art” Please respond to one (1) of
the following, using sources under the Explore heading as the
basis of your response: 

  • Select one (1) composition by Tchaikovsky that you enjoy. Describe the music
    and subject matter of that work, and explain why you enjoy it. Explain the key
    reasons why you believe that compositions by Tchaikovsky continue to be popular
    with contemporary orchestras and audiences. Passionate nationalism, like
    Tchaikovsky’s for Russia, could be a feature of Romantic art and music and in
    the arts of the late 1800s. Give primary examples of music today (besides
    national anthems) that is characterized by nationalism. 
  • Select two (2) paintings depicting females by both a male artist and female
    artist named within the Explore section. Compare and contrast these two (2)
    depictions of women, and comment on any general tendencies that you detect among
    artists of that era in this respect. Compare this situation in the late 1800s to
    the way females are depicted in our own modern times, using at least one (1)
    specific modern example.
