The nutcracker and the king of the mice

Music by Piotr Ilich Tchaikovsky (1840- 1893) based on the story by E.T.A. Hoffmann

They come in all sizes: small as key chains, medium as dolls and gigantic as people.  Nutcrackers, those soldiers with a tall hat, dress coat and powerful jaw, are everywhere. Just like the mice who hover around the cheese and startle us with their speedy scales (carrerillas... si es una alusion a la musica, en inglés se puede traducir como escala ). But, listen here. There are Christmases when nutcrackers come to life and fight their enemy, the King of the Mice. This is the romantic story we are going to relive with the help of the music of Tchaikovsky.
