"This performance of this suite, drawn by Tchaikovsky, preceded that of the ballet and was very well received for its clear form, lovely melodies, imaginative orchestration, and innocent spirit. The ballet itself did not initially fare well. But in the last half of the twentieth century it has become so popular as a Christmastime show that practically every ballet company produces it annually. The opening "Miniature Overture" has an inspired scoring: there are no bass instruments. (The lowest string instrument, for instance, is the viola.) The only other part of Act I in the suite is the March, originally depicting the boys of the household marching with their toy soldiers. "The Dance of the Sugar-Plum Fairy" is the most famous of all pieces featuring the then-new instrument, the celesta. "The Nutcracker Suite" was one of the compositions used in the classic Walt Disney animated feature "Fantasia." - AMG.

This is an RCA "Shaded Dog" Living Stereo recording from approx. 1958.

This is a fairly Early Pressing with 8S/9S as part of the LP's Matrix.

The RCA "Dogs" are considered to be of true Audiophile quality. This recording is no exception.

The record is Mint.
The jacket is NM.
The LP plays NM-.

An exceptionally good pressing. Instruments are highly detailed and each have "air" and presence around them. The bass is deep, mid-range is sweet and the high's are "bell-like" and transparent. The level of micro detail captured clearly reveals musicians fingers sliding along the strings of bowed instruments and of others shifting in their chairs!. A great performance and a superior recording.
Very faint surface noise and an occasional "tick".

Each record is washed on a VPI cleaning machine using a proprietary 3-5 agent process which is determined by the needs of the individual record. Each record is then listened to 100% to insure that the posted description is exactly what you can expect to get.
