Hocus Pocus James Syler

Mischief and fun abound in this magical work that evokes images of some of our favorite young wizards, including the sorcerer's apprentice. A mystical opening features flute and percussion before moving into a tarantella, a fast dance in 6/8 that almost has a delirious character to it. Themes collide, intensity rises, and pulse quickens as the music moves forward at a feverish rate. Let the magic begin!
