This work begins with a lighthearted melody (reminiscent of a bird's chirps) which is bound to set a magical tone for any Fantasy-themed production. As the piece develops, a more sinister aura takes control. As the flutters begin to fade and a more serious melody comes into the spotlight, this work truly shows its versatility; while dream sequences throughout maintain the mystical feel that introduced the work.
