Tchaikovsky’s music for ballet is every bit as enchanting as the fairy tales he brings to life. Swan LakeSleeping Beauty and The Nutcracker are three of the most popular ballets ever written, but it’s rare to experience them in the Concert Hall with the music taking centre stage. It’s what makes this program so special – dazzling storytelling, able to take full flight.
