Pas de Deux from The Nutcracker by Tchaikovsky

This one fools the unsuspecting audience member into thinking it is the end of the ballet. It is not. (Often there are small v young voices asking “is it over” during matinees!). It is sumptuous, dramatic and luscious. I have no idea, obviously, if this was in Tchaikovsky’s thinking but this movement is always so bright - that red/orange palette - to where it would be very wrong as the ending to the Nutcracker as it’s not how I ‘see’ the ballet as a whole.
