It doesn't seem to be generally known that Benjamin Britten was a great admirer of Tchaikovsky and conducted his music on several occasions. In 1968, he conducted Tchaikovsky's "Serenade for Strings" at the Snape Maltings and here is the 'Waltz' movement, played by the English Chamber Orchestra. (BBC Music CD - BBCB 8002-2.)
