The Nutcracker Suite By Stevan Pasero This CD was Stevan Pasero's first recording in his notable career and it features the first-ever transcriptions of Tchaikovsky's ageless ballet including March of the Wooden Soldiers, Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy, Dance of the Reed Flutes, Waltz of the Flowers and more. To say it simply, when this ground breaking transcription by Stevan Pasero was originally released in 1985, it inspired guitarists worldwide to look at their guitar repertoire and concert performances in a different way. From 1983-1985, Mr. Pasero transcribed this timeless work from full symphony score to solo and duet guitar. He then toured and performed his Nutcracker transcription internationally with critical acclaim. It will forever be remembered as one of the truly great transcriptions for classical guitar.
