Editorial Reviews
-Joshua Kosman, San Francisco Chronicle Datebook, December 22, 1991.
"Under music director Denis de Coteau, the orchestra gives a vibrant, rhythmically vivid performance, with a tender emotional undercurrent that's kept scrupulously in balance."
Music Review
San Francisco Staff Music Critic Joshua Kosman: December 22, 1991 "Under music director Denis deCoteau, the orchestra gives a vibrant, rhythmically vivid performance, with a tender emotional undercurrent that's kept scupulously in balance."
Album Description
The Nutcracker was recorded by the San Francisco Ballet Orchestra at Skywalker Sound in Marin, CA in 1988, and was self-produced cooperatively by members of the orchestra. The idea was conceived by Donald O'Brien, who was principal clarinetist with the orchestra for 30 years, and who was the executive producer for this recording. LINER NOTES: The Nutcracker is perhaps the most familiar and best loved music of Peter. I. Tchaikovsky. His score was written as a ballet and based on the popular French version by Alexander Dumas of the E.T.A. Hoffman story "The Nutcracker and the Mouse King." The premiere of the ballet was in St. Petersburg on December 17, 1892. The San Francisco Ballet presented the first full-length production of the Nutcracker in the United States in December of 1944. Almost 100 years after its premiere, the Nutcracker still remains a beloved ballet favorite and has become a cherished family celebration at Christmas time.
