About this listen

A Timeless Christmas Story

E.T.A. Hoffman's magical tale of an enchanted nutcracker, an evil mouse king, and a faithful young girl has been a holiday classic for generations. Combined here with the much-loved music of Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker Suite, the narrated story unfolds with a bewitching blend of wonder and drama that is sure to delight time and time again.

The celebrated actress, Claire Bloom, rose to international fame after her appearance in Charles Chaplin's movie masterpiece, Limelight.

The classic tale of an enchanted nutcracker and an evil mouse king is paired with the sublime music of Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker Suite. A bewitching blend of wonder and drama that is sure to delight, time and time again. An ALA Notable Recording.

ive been listening to this version of the Nutcracker story for 35 years and it's still as brilliant as the first time I heard it. Now I enjoy listening to this with my grandchildren who are enjoying it just as much.
