March from the Nutcracker

The Nutcracker ballet was written one year before the death of Tchaikovsky, and has become one of world's most loved ballets.� The march appears early on in Act 1 of the ballet, and is to be played both rhythmically and full of life.  This arrangement can also be performed as flute, oboe and violin.  The melody line flows between the parts, allowing each voice a share of it.
