NO. 14 ON THE CHRISTMAS COUNTDOWN - THE NEW YORK CITY BALLET AND THE NUTCRACKER

IT'S OUR LAST NIGHT IN THE BIG APPLE AND WE ARE GOING OUT WITH GEORGE BALANCHINE AND THE ONE AND ONLY NUTCRACKER BALLET BY THE NEW YORK CITY BALLET COMPANY PERFORMED AT THE WORLD RENOWN DAVID H. KOCH THEATRE AT LINCOLN CENTER, DESIGNED BY ARCHITECTURAL GADFLY AND PURVEYOR OF POPULAR ARCHITECURAL TRENDS PHILLIP JOHNSON.


Since it was virtually impossible to find an outtake of this great work of dance and music, I have posted a production of THE NUTCRACKER in it's entirety. If you have a couple of hours to kill, its worth every minute. With an original music score by Tchaikovsky, Balanchine was a brilliant master of dance innovation and the NYC Ballet performs it flawlessly. If you don't have the time, just take a stroll through it, click and enjoy some moments. It captures this great season of joy like nothing else.
