March from The Nutcracker. This version has the countermelody and thrilling string runs (listen to the audio sample at 1:36) that the Schirmer arrangement lacks.

Piano Solo - Intermediate - Digital Download

SKU: S0.301065

Composed by Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky. Arranged by Jon Thingvall. Romantic Period,Christmas,Recital. Piano Reduction,Solo Part. 7 pages. Published by Jon Thingvall (S0.301065).

Love the Schirmer edition of the Nutcracker Suite, but wish the March had the thrilling string runs at the end?  Me, too!  That's why I arranged this piece.  It's at least Intermediate level, but not so difficult as Mikhail Pletnev's.  I also had to hear that beautiful woodwind countermelody that appears every few bars, so I put that in as well.  It's great way to practice  drawing out a non-soprano voice, and it complements the staccato section with that beautiful, flowing line.
