In a lantern-lit masquerade ballroom, a black swan takes the lead, and the whole masked room follows her faster and faster until lightning cracks the mirror. Two electric cellos, electric violin, harpsichord-style strings, a driving timpani and taiko pulse, and a dark, sneering, half-spoken alto with a masked crowd chanting back.ִֶָ🩰˚˖𓍢 𓂃 ࣪ ִֶָ🦢་༘࿐ 🪞 THE STORY: three songs, three swans, one mirror. I. The Glass Swan: longing. Everything is still. II. The Black Swan Leads: danger. The mirror cracks and the masks come out. III. The Gilded Swan: wholeness. The mirror is mended with gold. 🌙 THE MOOD: dark, theatrical and seductive, like a masked ball that sounds like a trap. It starts sparse, quickens into a frenzy, then thins to a few cracked notes. 🦢 THE VISION: the middle chapter of a dark fairy tale for Halloween, told as a ballet in three chapters: what we hold still, what breaks us open, and what makes us whole. Play them in order. ─────────────── [Intro] [Instrumental] [Section 1] Ha... ha... ha... HA! HA! HA! [Section 2] Ha... ha... HA! HA! HA! [Section 3] HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! [Section 4] Ha... ha...
