A timeless set of music since its inception in 1892, Tchaikovsky's "The Nutcracker Ballet" has remained a beautiful work that people have come to appreciate nearly every holiday season. In 1960, Duke Ellington and Billy Strayhorn would come together to arrange excerpts from the ballet - a set of arrangements that would become one of the most popular jazz arrangements of a classical piece in modern music. Now, in 2011, one of the Midwest's most innovative pianists, Mike Jellick, brings to you a completely new and intrepid take on the heralded suite. Included in this collection are the provocative versions of 'Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy', as well as 'Waltz of the Flowers.'
