I've played Act Two, now, too - marvellous performance: Previn really gets the right mood of each number, and realizes the coherent narrative that Tchaikovsky creates between them.
I see what Mahlerei means about the recorded sound, though - I have the CfP CD transfer, and it is rather fierce at times. Not to the extent of spoiling the experience as a whole, though.[FONT=Comic Sans MS][I][B]Numquam Satis![/B][/I][/FONT]

Yes, the Rattle/Berlin Nutcracker is quite excellent.
I have fond memories from 2015 of reporting from an enchanting staging of Nutcracker by the Dresden State Ballet at Semperoper.
