Review:
The music for the famous duet dance between the Prince and the Sugar-Plum Fairy is one of the most expressive and dramatic movements from Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker ballet, here faithfully adapted for 3-7 octaves handbells with optional 3-4 octaves handchimes. Advanced ensembles (and intermediate groups looking for a worthwhile challenge) will find this a highlight of any concert performance.
Approximate performance time is 4:35.
