<p><b>New page</b></p><div>The traditional student song '''''Gaudeamus Igitur''''' was arranged by Tchaikovsky for male chorus with piano accompaniment ([[TH]] 187 ; [[ČW]] 413).<br />
<br />
==Instrumentation==<br />
Scored for four-part male chorus (TTBB) with solo piano.<br />
<br />
==Movements and Duration==<br />
There is one movement: Moderato (D major, 13 bars), lasting 2 to 3 minutes in performance.<br />
<br />
==Text==<br />
The Russian words ("Будем веселы, друзья...") were translated from the Latin by mathematics professor [[Nikolay Bugayev]] (1837–1903) of [[Moscow]] University.<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
No information survives concerning the composition of this work, which probably dates from its year of publication (1874).<br />
<br />
==Publication==<br />
The score was first published under the pseudonym "B. L." (Б. Л.) <ref name="note1"/> by [[Pyotr Jurgenson]] in 1874, and re-issued in 1881 with the choral parts. <br />
<br />
''Gaudeamus igitur'' was included in volume 60 of Tchaikovsky's ''[[Complete Collected Works]]'' (1971), edited by Georgy Kirkor.<br />
<br />
==Autographs==<br />
Tchaikovsky's manuscript arrangement is now preserved in the {{RUS-Mcm}} in [[Moscow]] ({{TOW2|gaudeamus-igitur-studencheskaya-pesnya-obrabotka-dlya-muzhskogo-hora-s-fortepiano|ф. 88, No. 127}}).<br />
