Act I, Scene 3
Journey Through the Snowflake Forest
In gratitude, the Nutcracker Prince leads Clara on a journey to the Kingdom of the Sweets, passing
first through the beautiful Snowflake Forest. In the midst of a blizzard of dancing snowflakes, the
majestic Snow Queen and King appear in a sleigh drawn by tiny reindeer. With royal courtesy, they
welcome Clara and the Nutcracker Prince and escort them through their frosty domain.
INTERMISSION
Act II
The Kingdom of the Sweets
Clara and the Nutcracker pass through gossamer clouds and
a company of angels as they approach the Palace of Sweets.
Once again they receive a royal welcome, this time from the
Sugar Plum Fairy and her Cavalier. The Nutcracker tells of his
fierce battle with the mice and the Sugar Plum Fairy rewards Clara for her bravery. The colorful
residents of the kingdom are introduced to the visitors and the royal entertainment
begins. First comes Chocolate from Spain, dancing a lively Bolero. The soft
undulating strains that accompany Coffee from Arabia are followed by bubbling
Tea from China and the sprightly Candy Canes. Marzipan Shepherdesses dance
to the enchanting sound of reed flutes as
Peppermints from Russia perform a lively
Trepak. From France comes Mother Ginger
with a skirt full of Ginger Bread Children.
All of the beautiful Flowers from the
kingdom gather for a waltz to honor Clara.
The Sugar Plum Fairy and her Cavalier
crown the festivities with
a Grand Pas de Deux.
All dreams must come to an end, and, at
last, it is time for Clara to depart. To bid
farewell to their guests, each group of
dancers return to wave good-bye as Clara
sails for home in a beautiful hot air balloon.
Tchaikovsky and the Music
Tchaikovsky’s score for The Nutcracker is undoubtedly the most popular and
familiar music ever written for the ballet stage. The Nutcracker was the last
in a series of brilliant works by Tchaikovsky that defined the great classical
era of ballet. Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky was born in Votkinsk, Russia on May 7,
1840. Like many composers of his generation, his family expected him to
complete a formal education. Consequently, Tchaikovsky graduated from law
school in 1859 before embarking on a career in music. Despite periods of deep
depression, he was remarkably productive as a composer. His works include ten
operas, six symphonies, three piano concerti, a violin concerto, incidental music
for various plays and operas as well as three of the most famous classical ballets
in the world: Swan Lake (1875), The Sleeping Beauty (1890), and of course, The
Nutcracker (1892). Tchaikovsky died of cholera in St. Petersburg on November 6,
1893 leaving a legacy of music beloved the world over.
