Phillip Sear plays a very Tchaikovskian piece from an 1889 set by the Polish composer Zygmunt Noskowski (1846-1909).
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Although he studied for a time in Berlin, the Polish composer Zygmunt Noskowski (1846-1909) spent most of his musical life in Warsaw, and composed in most genres (including one of the first Polish symphonic poems).  He was in advance of Debussy in titling a set of pieces 'Images', but there is nothing impressionistic about them.  They were dedicated to the Polish pianist and teacher Boleslaw Domaniewski (1857-1926), who was to become the director of the Warsaw Conservatory in 1900.  This piece is so much in the style of Tchaikovsky that it could easily be passed of as being by him (I think!).
