The Nutcracker
All seven parts of Tchaikovsky’s famous Nutcrackersuite are now arranged for harpensemble by Sabien Canton. Let the Sugar Plum Fairy enchant you, battle against the Mouse King and dance to the magical notes of the Waltz of the Flowers!
The original fairy tale has been translated and shortened so it can be performed an staged (even outside the winter monthes) by an orchestra of harps and ballet or storyteller. The english tekst can be downloaded on this site. Free audio practice tracks can also be downloaded or listened to on spotify and youtube
The Nutcracker consists of 3 illustrated books:
– harp 1 and 2 for beginners and intermediate players
– harp 3 for advance players (leverharp version and pedalharpversion)
– score (including the original celasta score and the librett)
