Scottish Chamber Orchestra: The Nutcracker

Tchaikovsky The Nutcracker

Maxim Emelyanychev, conductor
Jay Capperauld, presenter

From the delicate Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy to the elegant Waltz of the Flowers, Tchaikovsky’s The Nutcracker conjures all the magic and wonder of Christmas – and it’s as much of a seasonal treat for classical newcomers as it is for aficionados.

Tchaikovsky’s compatriot Maxim Emelyanychev invites you to immerse yourself in all the sugar, snow and sparkle of the composer’s full ballet score, as young Clara sees her beloved Nutcracker transformed into a handsome Prince, who whisks her away to the Land of Sweets.

With its heart-melting melodies and foot-tapping dances – and with singers joining the Orchestra to bring his timeless classic to colourful life – this is a Christmas feast for the senses.
