The Magician's Spell

This song was inspired by and based loosely on the 1940 Walt Disney film "Fantasia".

For those not familiar with the feature film, Mickey is a Sorcerer's apprentice of sorts meaning that he is tasked with cleaning the Magician's castle. One night, when the Magician has gone to bed, Mickey uses the Magician's magic hat to cast a spell on his mop so that it will clean the floor by itself. The spell takes effect and the mop cleans the castle very well however, it cleans too well. Mickey cannot stop it and things get out of hand very quickly. The mop is too efficient and the castle starts to flood from the constant pouring of water by the enchanted mop. Mickey finally uses an axe to chop the mop into many pieces gaining a brief respite, only to have the many pieces spring to life and continue cleaning, pouring water and flooding the castle until the Magician wakes up, discovering what Mickey has done and ends it with an overriding spell.

Had fun making it, hope you enjoy it.

Cheers,

Stuart

Hi! Mit welcher Magie Mickey Maus an seiner Zauberei herangeht, das wird nur sein Geheimnis alleine bleiben. Dein Soundtrack ist sehr gut.

Hi Stuart,

I know the samples and therefore estimate your work to this song.
To the finish however, you could have made the transitions somewhat cleaner.

Hey Stu:

How in the hell did I miss this one?  The piano is the obvious main character in this musical story; and it sounds terrific! 

"Fantasia" was (is) one of my favorite animations that I used to love as a kid (I 'still' watch it on occasion).  So, I remember this Disney classic quite well.  You've certainly captured the spirit of the soundtrack excellently.

The applause is loud and overwhelming on this end. my friend.

Good stuff.

Hello Stuart

I am not familar with this track so i can just listen to as a if a new score. Very well crafted and put together, kept me totally engrossed in the movement and pace, so much so I was surprised that it was only 3:16 long, the blend of notes was brilliant.

Well done.

Je connais ce film et je l'avais apprécié, ainsi que sa musique.

C'est une très belle bande son que tu as composé.

C'est de la belle musique classique très bien composée, arrangée et mixée qui comporte aussi plusieurs transitions appréciables,

l'intro au piano est vraiment super et me plait beaucoup, bravo ! et va très bien avec les évênements tragiques de ce film.

Les sons sont très beaux, que ce soit les cuivres, les bois ou autres.

Morceau un peu court peu être, dommage.

Mais super une nouvelle fois, je l'ai écouté 3 fois et mis dans mes favoris avec une bonne dixaine d'étoiles,

Amicalement.
