The Magic Of Music
The lights dim, the music builds, the curtain opens and the stage bursts into a colorful menagerie of mystery. Would we feel the same excitement and thrill if there were no music? Music is Magic! It can instantly conjure up long lost memories, make us laugh or make us cry. It can relax us or create an atmosphere of mystery and suspense.
I've been incorporating music in my magic act for over 20 years. Those of you who have done the same know the problems we face: songs are too long and then they fade out - not a good applause getter. These songs are short and they don't fade out. Most have a melody line making them good for silent acts. Some are better for background music. The "Short Bits" give your show a professional touch. They're great for bringing up or dismissing an assistant or for filling the seconds you need to bring out your next effect.
The music offered in my CD collections is Royalty Free- What does that mean? It means you can use this music without BMI or ASCAP infringements. The music is copyrighted however, meaning it cannot be reproduced and sold. Your purchase of this product entitles you to use it in your performances.

"The new Magic of the Moor CD is terrific! I'm
certain there is at least one song on this recording for every
performing magician. I've already added "Here They Come" and "Swamp
Party" to
my act. You won't believe the diversity of songs 'till you hear
them."
