Notes of pieces of music that were played during the Melikhovo period: romances by P.I. Tchaikovsky and Wallachian Legend of G. Braga. “Beautiful Lika” was good at singing this romance to her own accompaniment, and I.N. Potapenko, Chekhov’s close acquaintance, a writer who was popular at that time, played the second violin part. Anton Pavlovich found this song somewhat mystical and full of beautiful romanticism,” Mikhail Pavlovich remembered. Some time will pass and this melody will sound in Chekhov’s mysterious story entitled The Black Monk. And wonderful tulips and apple trees in bloom described in this story will remind of the blossom of the Chekhov’s garden.
