I have listened to this recording of The Nutcracker since I was about 4 or 5. It has lulled me to sleep, it has gotten me excited for Christmas, and has cemented my love affair with Tchaikovsky's music. Claire Bloom's wondrous and velvety voice does an interesting rendition of The Nutcracker, with some extra bits that aren't in the Ballet, but make everything more titillating. It's set to the Main Bits of the Nutcracker Suite, and....I LOVE IT! You should love it too.
