From the Waltz of the Snowflakes to the Dance of the Sugar-Plum Fairy, few pieces of music capture the spirit of the season quite like Tchaikovsky’s ballet The Nutcracker. We take you to Paris for a live performance of this perennial favorite recorded earlier this month. Enjoy the complete Nutcracker with the French National Orchestra and conductor Petr Popelka.
