Imagine a colourful procession of magical and mythical characters and creatures. Imagine wizards and witches; jesters and jugglers; magicians and minstrels; gargoyles and goblins. Imagine trundling trolls, laughing leprechauns, giant dragons, and flying fairies. Imagine brightly decorated wagons drawn by prancing unicorns, stilt walkers, and unicycles. Imagine them all moving past in a stately procession heading towards Merlin’s enchanted castle in the distance — imagine!
The composer had this mini movie in mind while composing Procession of the Sorcerers. The music has a quirky, medieval style to it — starting with percussion, introducing the themes and weaving them together, and building majestically towards the entrance into Merlin’s castle.
If there is only one percussionist the drum set part can be used.The drum set part can also be used if more of a “rock” feel is wanted.
