Grand Waltz and Apotheosis: The Nutcracker on Piano, Act II
And here completes the Nutcracker on Piano, the project I'm the most proud of to date. I remember the first time I decided to record the whole ballet- I just said to myself, "I'm going to do it, I don't care if it's perfect and I'm not gonna stress out over it." If I had tried to be overly perfect in all the details, I don't think I would've ever started. Perhaps this will be an inspiration to someone hesitant to start their own project!
Since I completed the recordings, I've released it to streaming platforms, and on physical CD. The recordings were also used in the Hudson Ballet (New York) performance when they didn't do an in person performance last year. And now I can finally say I have released a video for each track too! Of all the music I've recorded, this is the most timeless and the most brilliant composition. I can't wait to add to the set by recording both Swan Lake and Sleeping Beauty, both by Tchaikovsky as well.
Happy New Year! Here's to another year of wonderful music.
PS: Sorry for the lack of hand work at the very end- one of the videos got lost :(
