From Tchaikowsky's ballet The Nutcracker Suite comes this fresh scoring for your full orchestra or string orchestra (any winds and/or percussion can be added). The technical demands have been reduced, but the musical content is strongly in evidence. With a charming flow from beginning to end, this work will find its way into thousands of holiday concerts as well as programs at other times of the year. Delightful! (2:47)
