The Christmas classic ballet "The Nutcracker" returns to TPAC this December with music from the Nashville Symphony.

Listen to how Tchaikovsky uses the celesta in “The Nutcracker,” unleashing the potential of the instrument to signal playfulness and fantasy.

The Nutcracker is the Philadelphia Ballet's longest-running production and a tradition that brings both audiences and dancers together for a little holiday magic.

It is officially Christmas in Cincinnati, because the Cincinnati Ballet's The Nutcracker officially opens Thursday at Music Hall.

“The Nutcracker Suite,” originally arranged for Les Brown and his Band of Renown by Frank Comstock, wasn’t the only time that the Brian Setzer Orchestra dabbled in classical rearrangements.

The Nutcracker at the Jacobs School of Music blends the grandeur of live theater with the intimacy of film, bringing viewers closer to the music, movement and emotion on stage than ever before.
