Nutcracker

Album by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky & Royal Philharmonic Orchestra & Ambrosian Singers & André Previn

The Nutcracker is a two-act ballet by Russian composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, first performed in 1892. The score employs lush Romantic-era orchestration, distinctive melodic material and a variety of dance forms, and an orchestral suite derived from the ballet is frequently performed in concert, placing the work among Tchaikovsky's late ballet output.
