Get into the Christmas Spirit with the story that inspired one of the season's most-beloved traditions!

Collected here are two different versions of the classic story. It includes not only the original, written by E. T. A. Hoffman, but also the translation/adaptation by the famous novelist Alexandre Dumas (The Count of Monte Cristo, The Three Musketeers, The Man in the Iron Mask). These, in turn, inspired the world-famous Tchaikovsky ballet. Listeners can finally compare and contrast the two different versions, and thrill to the story in both its multifaceted variations.

This fully annotated edition of The Complete Nutcracker Collection includes:

  • A new foreword which provides key historical and literary context
