alt Hacker NewsPeter Ilyich Tchaikovsky was born in Votkinsk, May 7 1840.
When he was a little boy he never played out in the streets of Votkinsk like the other little children of Votkinsk, because when Tchaikovsky was one month old, his parents moved to St. Petersburg.

As Victor said, his parents were very upset when they came home and found him in front of a roaring fire, because they did not have a fireplace.
