Music from The Nutcracker is a ballet score by Russian composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, first performed in 1892. The work is characteristic of the late-Romantic era, featuring colourful orchestration, varied dance forms and sectional movements that narrate a theatrical story, and it occupies a central place in Tchaikovsky's output as a major composition for ballet.
