  • The Nutcracker"
    The Essentials: "The Nutcracker" Lauren LaRocca, Friday, December 13 Photo Sharen Bradford Presented by Aspen Santa Fe Ballet 2 and 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 14 1 and 5 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 15 Lensic Performing Arts Center, 211 W. San Francisco Street Tickets are $36 to $94; 505-988-1234, lensic.org The origin The origin of The Nutcracker ballet can be traced back to E.T.A. Hoffmann’s bizarre 1816 Christmas story, Nutcracker and the Mouse King (Nussknacker und Mausekönig). In it, the heroine is named Maria. (In the ballet, she’s sometimes called Maria, Marie, and the familiar Clara.) The ballet wasn’t inspired by Hoffman’s story, per se, but by an adaptation of the story written by Alexandre Dumas, The Story of a Nutcracker, in 1844. The ballet was created nearly 50 years later, debuting in 1892, with musical composition by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky and choreography by Marius Petipa (when Petipa grew ill, Lev Ivanov took over and finished the piece) Composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky Born in Russia in 1840, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky began studying piano at 5 and later attended the St. Petersburg Conservatory. There he learned Western methods of composition, which widened his perception of styles and allowed him to understand music cross-culturally. This training would set his work apart from other Russian composers. After graduating, he began teaching music theory at Moscow Conservatory while working on his own symphonies and ballets. He became best known for writing the 1812 Overture, as well as his Nutcracker, Swan Lake, and Sleeping Beauty ballets.
