Form
The Bogatyrev reconstruction follows the traditional four-movement pattern:
- Allegro brillante
- This movement was used for the Third Piano Concerto, Op. posth. 75.
- Andante
- Bogatyryev used the Andante from the Andante and Finale for Piano and Orchestra, Op. posth. 79, which had been constructed from Tchaikovsky's sketches by Sergei Taneyev. More recently, it was reused as the slow movement of a projected Cello Concerto.
- Scherzo: Vivace assai
- Perceiving that Tchaikovsky would have written a scherzo for this symphony, Bogatyryev orchestrated this piece from Tchaikovsky's Scherzo-Fantasie, Op. 72, No. 10.
- Finale: Allegro maestoso
- Bogatyryev used the Finale from the Andante and Finale.
