Davos

Davos is a municipality and health resort in the district of Prättigau/Davos in the canton of Graubünden, Switzerland.

Tchaikovsky stayed at Davos from 11/23 November–17/29 November 1884, in order to see his friend Iosif Kotek, who was gravely ill with tuberculosis. The town made a favourable impression on the composer, despite the unhappy circumstances of his visit, and the Cherubim's Song (No. 3 of the Nine Church Pieces) was composed here.
