On Christmas Eve, Clara receives a nutcracker from her godfather, Drosselmeyer. That night she dreams that the nutcracker is fighting alongside toy soldiers against the Mouse King's army. Clara helps the nutcracker and it transforms into a prince. Together they journey to the Land of Sweets and celebrate a marvellous festival with the Sugar Plum Fairy. It was all just a wonderful dream - or was it…? Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky (1840-1893) was a Russian composer whose ballets \"Swan Lake\", \"The Sleeping Beauty\" and \"The Nutcracker\" became cornerstones of the repertoire. He studied at the Saint Petersburg Conservatory and later taught in Moscow, developing a melodic style that blends Western forms with Russian colour. His music gained international acclaim during his lifetime and he conducted the premiere of his \"Symphony No. 6 'Pathétique'\" in 1893 shortly before his death.","brand":"INAudio","offers":[{"title":"Audiobook","offer_id":67718302269744,"sku":"BD2djj","price":6.48,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0879\/2784\/9264\/files\/2djj-Square-cover.png?v=1788300837","url":"https:\/\/downpour.com\/products\/book-2djj","provider":"Downpour","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
