    Default Solved: the songs within a A Mad Russian's Christmas

    Christmas Eve/Sarajevo 12/24, as popularized by the Trans-Siberian Orchestra, mixed "Carol of the Bells" and "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen". A Mad Russian's Christmas seems to be a mix of songs, as well, however, I'm unable to identify the songs. Any ideas?

    They're all from Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker Suite.

    1. Dance of the Sugarplum Fairy (00:01-01:16)

    2. Russian Dance (Trepak) (01:17-01:41)

    3. Dance Of The Reed Pipes (01:42-03:00)

    4. Dance of the Sugarplum Fairy (variation on a theme) (03:01-03:16)

    5. Arabian Dance (03:17-03:39)

    6. Russian Dance (Trepak) (variation on a theme) (03:40-END)

    I guess that'd explain the why the name includes "Russian" in it, heh.

    Thanks!

    The ironic thing is I don't think that TSO are actually native Russian. At least their names don't seem Russian to me. Maybe its just their schtick.

    And, any time.
