A classic holiday ballet, The Nutcracker is a two-act ballet choreographed by Marius Petipa and Lev Ivanov with a score by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky. Clara is the undoubted heroine of the ballet. Clever and brave, it is Clara who helps the Nutcracker, transformed into human size, fend off and slay the evil Mouse King and his army. Her grace and resolve is reflected in a 1oz pure silver legal tender coin applied with vibrant color and housed in a special ornament-style hanger capsule. A unique keepsake or to adorn a holiday tree! Second in the series following the Nutcracker Soldier.
The ballet’s narrative of The Nutcracker is an adaptation of E. T. A. Hoffmann’s story The Nutcracker and the Mouse King. Thanks to Tchaikovsky’s innovative use of the chime-like instrument, the cinesta, the ballet’s musical score is today instantly identifiable and a melodic icon of popular culture.
