Death by Tchaikovsky

The act of making love while listening to the 1812 Overture. Starts slow but turns to an extreme showing of brute force which leads to your partner never being the same.
I was fuckin her the other night and the 1812 overture came on. It went from slow to death by Tchaikovsky. She couldn't walk right for a week.
