Rights and use

Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky died in 1893, so the composition is in the public domain in the US and in the countries that protect a work for its author’s life plus 70 years. The edition this recording plays (PDMX) is released under CC0, so the notes carry no conditions either. Open it in Score Studio to time it to your video: the render you make there is yours to use, in an ad too (Terms §6.3).

About the piece

The Nutcracker was Tchaikovsky’s last ballet, premiered in St Petersburg in December 1892 on a double bill with his opera Iolanta. Its music has become the season’s soundtrack in theatres, films and shop windows.

This is a longer arrangement of music from the ballet, useful when a spot needs more than one idea.

Sounds festive, theatrical, warm · Cuts well to longer brand films, retail campaigns, event openers
