the melody is played on an instrument called a celesta.
accompaniment and counter melodies are played mainly by woodwinds and strings
the entire orchestra plays at some point though.

A Celeste or Celesta. It is a small percussive keyboard instrument using hammers to strike metal bars, producing a bright, bell-like sound.
Celesta is the instrument
A Celesta is something like an up-right piano, but it produces sounds that vibrates because a little hammer hits against the steel or metal to produce the sound. This is used in The Nutcracker (the "xylophone"), and the timbre is quite silvery and hallow
