In addition to the above projects, single scenes survive for two further operas which were not completed:<br />
''[[Mandragora]]'' (1869–70) and ''[[Romeo and Juliet (projected opera)|Romeo and Juliet]]'' (1878–81).<br />
<br />
Tchaikovsky also gave serious consideration to the following operatic subjects:<br />
''[[Hyperbola]]'' (1854); ''[[The Storm (projected opera)|The Storm]]'' (1864–67?); ''[[The Palm]]'' (?1867–68); ''[[Alexander of Macedon]]'' (1868); ''[[Raimond Lully]]'' (1870); ''[[Ephraim]]'' (1875–76); ''[[Francesca da Rimini (projected opera)|Francesca da Rimini]]'' (1876); ''[[Othello]]'' (1876–77); ''[[Undina (projected opera)|Undina]]'' (1878-93); ''[[Les Caprices de Marianne]]'' (1878-88); ''[[Vanka the Steward]]'' (1881); ''[[The Captain's Daughter]]'' (1885–88); ''[[The Bayadere]]'' (1888); ''[[La Courtisane]] ([[Sadia]])'' (1888–91); ''[[Béla]]'' (1889–93); ''[[The Sad Fortunes of the Reverend Amos Barton]]'' (1893); ''[[Mister Gilfil's Love Story]]'' (1893); and ''[[Adam Bede]]'' (1893).<br />
<br />
He also provided additional recitatives and an introductory chorus to [[Auber]]'s opera ''[[Le Domino noir (Auber)|Le Domino noir]]'' (1868), and adapted [[Mozart]]'s ''[[The Marriage of Figaro (Mozart)|The Marriage of Figaro]]'' for the Russian stage (1875).<br />
