The Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra, the Rochester City Ballet, and the Bach Children's Choir are coming together again to perform "The Nutcracker," an annual ode to the winter season and an honor to Russian composer Tchaikovsky. The RPO will perform the much-beloved live score as RCB delivers a striking presentation of the classic Christmas story about a young girl who accompanies her toy, which has come to life, on a journey to a magical kingdom.
