It's got to be the '90's.

Rimsky-Korsakov and Glazunov complete Borodin’s opera, Prince Igor.

Tchaikovsky’s ballet, Sleeping Beauty.

Pietro Mascagni’s opera Cavalleria rusticana.

Edvard Grieg writes two suites for Ibsen’s play, Peer Gynt.

Tchaikovsky’s ballet, The Nutcracker.

Antonin Dvorák’s Fifth Symphony in E Minor (The New World).

Claude Debussy’s Prelude to Afternoon of a Fawn.

Richard Strauss, Til Eulenspiegel’s Merry Pranks, Thus Spake Zarathustra.

Gustav Mahler’s Second Symphony.

Giacomo Puccini’s opera, La Bohème.

Edward Elgar composes The Enigma Variations.

Debussy composes Nocturnes.

Great decade.
