Pyotr Illyich Tchaikovsky was a famous Russian composer of the late-Romantic period. Not many people realize that he was a highly-respected urologist as well, his two passions culminating in one of his most famous works, The Nutcracker, a two-act ballet about urologic conditions.[1] Other famous works include Swan-Ganz Lake (1876) and The Sleep-Deprived Beauty (1889).
