Reviews about Nutcracker Suite:

Wonderful arrangement! by amy kniffen * VSM MEMBER * on January 2021

These arrangements are delightful, my quartet and I have enjoyed them very much. During a year when it was not possible to play with a whole orchestra, this gave great joy to me and our audience. [this review is about Nutcracker Suite (f.score) included with this item]

Well arranged! by Rupert Swarbrick on December 2010

This worked very well as part of a scratch Christmas concert. Unless you've got lots of rehearsal time, the performers probably want to be grade 8+ since some parts are pretty quick.

The arrangements are excellent: the dance of the sugar plum fairy is particularly fun!

Very Useful Arrangement by Sam Wu * VSM MEMBER * on November 2009

This is a very good arrangement made for String Orchestras! It balances out within the parts, and allows each section's unique colors to be shown. I'm starting my own chamber group very soon, and I'm glad I can get my orchestra to play this lovely piece. I sincerely hope soon there may be the string orchestra arrangement for "Swan Lake" as well. Thank you! [this review is about Nutcracker Suite (parts) included with this item]

July 16 , 2008 by Brunilda Davila on July 2008

The Nutcraker is the Most Popular Piece in the
world I had the experience to see the Complete
Ballet with the orquestra at the Bob Carr Performing Arts here in Orlando I was Seating in
the First Row. I enjoyed so much. Recently I saw
the Sleeping Beauty I met in Person Behind the
Scenes the Entire Corps of Dancers. You have to
have this Experience. Its magical Piece

Rich in Texture by Matt on February 2008

This is a splendid transcription of the Nutcracker Suite. The textures are rich, and the original score is faithfully reproduced. Well done!

Finally I got it! by Tim Walters on December 2007

Well, was so a long time I was waiting for this arrangement (announced by VSM long time ago). It is the only complete arrangement of the Nutcracker for string quartet on the market and perfectly conforms to the original for full orchestra.

I saw other arrangements around but they were incomplete and bad arranged.. this is really wonderful. Thank you! [this review is about Nutcracker Suite (parts) included with this item]
