Cum spuneam, toți erau binedispuși, numai regina părea foarte speriată și neliniștită, și nimeni nu știa de ce. Bătător la ochi era îndeosebi faptul că ea pusese sub strașnică pază pătucul lui Pirlipat. Deși ușile erau păzite de oșteni, în afara celor două îngrijitoare care nu se dezlipeau de leagăn - alte șase trebuiau să șadă noapte de noapte prin preajmă, în toate ungherele camerei." Below is a synopsis based on the original 1892 libretto by Marius Petipa. The story varies from production to production, though most follow the basic outline. The names of the characters also vary. In the original Hoffmann story, the young heroine is called Marie Stahlbaum and Clara (Klärchen) is her doll's name. In the adaptation by Dumas on which Petipa based his libretto, her name is Marie Silberhaus. [5] In still other productions, such as Baryshnikov's, Clara is Clara Stahlbaum rather than Clara Silberhaus. Soviet ed., where they are printed in the original French with added Russian translation in editorial footnotes I enjoyed reading this one aloud to my daughter. The story is short and the pacing is very good. The characters are all three dimensional and completely believable. There is a current of mystery and tension that keeps things moving along. Author Susan Adrian is particularly good at realistic dialog and familiar family and school settings.

The Nutcracker - Royal Opera House

This is the marvellously strange and creative novella that Tchaikovsky's ballet is based on. And it is just as surreal as the ballet - but ballets are surreal by nature, while books needn't be. Like a darker, Continental forerunner to Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. It makes zero sense, but is more than evocative enough to make up for it. Up to two children under 16 can attend half price with each full paying adult, valid for prices A – C on Wednesday evening, Thursday evening and Saturday matinee I'm not a fan of Where the Wild Things Are, and I wasn't too impressed with Sendak's weird Labyrinth-like tale, Outside Over There (because there was no Jareth in it, obviously). But I wanted to read this version because Auntie J said it was the best version ever.Brown, David. Tchaikovsky: The Final Years, 1885-1893. London, 1991; corrected edition 1992: p. 386

Había mucho que objetar a su figura, pues, aparte de que su torso, demasiado grande y largo, no concordaba con sus cortas y finas piernecillas, tenía una cabeza también excesivamente grande. Su correcta vestimenta mejoraba bastante las cosas, pues dejaba traslucir que se trataba de un hombre culto y refinado" In 1956, Artur Rodziński and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra made a complete recording of the ballet in stereo for Westminster Records.

Dumas's father's aristocratic rank helped young Alexandre Dumas acquire work with Louis-Philippe, Duke of Orléans, then as a writer, finding early success.

And I don't think it's a Christmas story though the events happen during Christmas time; in my opinion some parts are maybe a little bit too dark to be read during Christmas.I've never been particularly into ballet, but it's a beautiful art form and if you love the ballet I definitely recommend this.

Hoffmann and just for the fun of it, L. Frank Baum, were on some kind of drugs when they wrote their most popular books? LOL!! In 1954, the first complete recording of the ballet was released on two LPs by Mercury Records. The cover design was by George Maas with illustrations by Dorothy Maas. [66] The music was performed by the Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Antal Doráti. Doráti later re-recorded the complete ballet in stereo, with the London Symphony Orchestra in 1962 for Mercury and with the Amsterdam Concertgebouw Orchestra in 1975 for Philips Classics. According to Mercury Records, the 1962 recording was made on 35mm magnetic film rather than audio tape, and used album cover art identical to that of the 1954 recording. [67] [68] Dorati is the only conductor so far to have made three different recordings of the complete ballet. Some critics have cited the 1975 recording as the finest ever made of the complete ballet. [69] It is also faithful to the score in employing a boys' choir in the Waltz of the Snowflakes. Many other recordings use an adult or mixed choir.
