Christmas Special: The Nutcracker Suite ~ Tchaikovsky

Christmas Special: The Nutcracker Suite ~ Tchaikovsky

Merry Christmas Everyone!

As an urbanite I love the 1920's film Berlin Symphony so very much. I love watching the city come to life in the morning and wind back down. and Yes, I sat through the whole thing avidly, although i have to admit I enjoyed it much more by switching off the music occasionally.
