According to the author, that the New York City Ballet has begun its season with a week of repertory, which was followed by Christmas-week performances of "The Nutcracker." With the additional performances the piece has lad in Europe since then it now has a greater clarity of outline and articulation that increases its effectiveness, in particular the effectiveness of the series of fascinatingly complex and marvelously beautiful solos of the variation movement and the great supported adagio of the slow movement.
