That must have sounded so beautiful. Our local classical radio station is playing holiday music. It''s wonderful.Date: 12/12/2004 2:194 PM

I have played parts of the the Nutcracker but never the entire ballet. You would have to be a member of a ballet pit orchestra for that. My favorite music from this ballet is the Pas de Deux near the end. It just so beautiful. I was at a performance of the San Francisco Ballet performing the Nutcracker once and gasp ... the guy dropped her during the Pas de Deux.
I play principal flute in our community orchestra. Last week our concert included selections from Handel''s Messiah (with audience sing along) and Leroy Anderson''s Sleigh Ride.
