ASMR / Relaxation - The History of The Nutcracker (featuring guest artist, 

Описание: This soft spoken literature/culture ASMR podcast takes a look at the History of The Nutcracker - a ballet that is so beloved, it has turned into a cultural phenomenon. Together, we'll explore its origins in the classic (and surreal) children's story by ETA Hoffmann, then discover how it was transformed into a lavish ballet production by Marius Petipa - with soaring music by Tchaikovsky. We'll then take a look at how The Nutcracker has adapted with the times... and is now available across a variety of formats and genres.

#SoundsCurious is a youtube channel dedicated to audio adventures... as someone who experiences ASMR (and who also uses audio to help me sleep), my aim with these videos is to provide you with a deeply relaxing experience that will help you to feel rested and refreshed - as well as triggering ASMR tingles in those that experience them. Balancing soft and calming vocals with informative content, my favourite topics for videos are history, culture, literature, the fine and decorative arts... and whatever else takes my fancy 🙂 Subscribe to the Sounds Curious channel for updates on the latest videos - and don't forget to say hello on social...
