Welcome to Intermezzo from Interlochen Public Radio, where we take a few minutes to bounce some ideas around about classical music.
This week on Intermezzo, we're going to get into the gift giving spirit of the season by unwrapping some of the most magical parts of Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker ballet — from the perspective of our 7-year-old co-host, Sunday, who's playing a mouse in an upcoming production!
Today's gift is tea, from the Chinese Dance! Listen to Christy L'Esperance and Sunday discuss what makes this gift special on today's edition of Intermezzo.

This week's Mystery Melody
It's time to test your ears. Each week we have a mystery melody that we have to figure out together. It relates to our topic. (We'll make the melody less mysterious each day.)
If you know the mystery melody, text your name and the title and we’ll give you a shout out on Friday. The number to text is (833) 490-4718.
