A PERFECT MARRIAGE OF SOUND AND PICTURE. I revisit an old favorite only to fall in love with it again. Only this time, I fall in love more deeply, more maturely and with far richer understanding and appreciation.
A journey through abstract shapes and color, living broomsticks, ice-skating fairies, dinosoars, centaurs, mythological gods and creatures, dancing mushrooms, Russian plants, twinkle-toed hippopotami and terrifying demons, played against marvelous classical pieces such as Stravinsky's The Rite of Spring and Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker Suite, all ending in a glorious dusky Ave Maria by Schubert.
Moving sound. Moving picture. Moving me.
Love!
