Review:      Peter Tchaikovsky's beloved NUTCRACKER is the origin of this selection set for 4-5 octaves of bells and optional rhythm instrument. This setting is for the advanced bell choir, and it is important to have the ringers look through the piece before ringing and pay close attention to the direction of the stems and their assigned articulations. Additional performance notes are given along with information about the arranger. Measures total 77.
