From a 45 RPM E.P. that I've found at a flea market. This might be from the '50s or '60s. For those of you who have seen my 2-part video of my turntable may recall seeing that record. In this video, I'm playing both sides. The record is scratchy and has 2 skips in the Chinese Dance. I managed to cut down the noise as much as I can (see below for the software I use). I prefer playing Side B first because I felt that Side A should be saved for last.
Doesn't say who was the conductor, but does mention two orchestra names on each side.
-----------------------------------
(The side I played first)
Imperial Viennese Concert Orchestra
1. Chinese Dance
2. Dance of the Sugar-Plum Fairy
3. Nutcracker March
(The other side)
Royal Viennese Symphonic Orchestra
"Waltz of the Flowers"
-----------------------------------
Turntable: Pioneer PL-L70
Camcorder: Sony CCD-TRV608 Hi-8 Handycam
Sound remastered using MAGIX Audio Cleaning Lab 16
Video recorded directly to the Magnavox MSR 90D6 DVD recorder

I got 3 LPs for $3 and I was told that I could get 3 more for free, therefore I got 6 for $3. This was one of the 3 free LPs I got. That record is almost like NEW!
A few minor drawbacks: The sound is rather unsteady at times. On some tracks, the sound gets cut off in the end before it could fade away completely. The whole album is less than a half-hour long (not too concerned about that). Youll also notice how the tonearm sorta swings due to the record being a little off centered. The sounds was electronically enhanced for stereo. At least, the vinyl surface is almost like new and I still find it a fun to listen to Christmas album.
