En Avant: Petipa's Nutcracker

En Avant is a five minute ballet segment, hosted by Karen Gibbons-Brown, which airs during Rob Nylund's Classical Connection Review, every Saturday evening on Fort Wayne's 89.1 WBOI. This version has been modified from its broadcast edition to accommodate musical copyright.

We know and love The Nutcracker, but was it always so popular? Marius Petipa and his assistant, along with Tchaikovsky, created a holiday classic that wasn't initially well received.
