The Nutcracker: Suites 1 and 2

Album by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky & Orchestre de la Société des Concerts du Conservatoire & Anatole Fistoulari

The Nutcracker: Suites 1 and 2 are orchestral suites by Russian composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, composed in 1892. They extract selections from his ballet into compact instrumental movements that showcase his melodic lyricism, rich orchestration and use of colourful instrumental timbres, and they occupy an important place in his output as frequently performed concert works that have shaped both ballet and orchestral repertoire.
