The Nutcracker Simon Special Edition

The Simon Special Edition of The Nutcracker is a one-hour adaptation that includes music from every scene in Tchaikovsky s famous ballet. Unlike The Nutcracker Suite that includes only an abbreviated overture and several of the dances from Act II, the Simon Edition of The Nutcracker is a spirited romp that will leave none of your favorite moments behind. Stephen Simon conducts the London Philharmonic Orchestra in this new edition. Stephen Simon was uniquely qualified to create this edition, having created well-known performance editions of Handel s operas and oratorios that led the Handel revival in America.
