About this item
This tour-de-force takes listeners on a magical journey back to a time of dragons and wizards. After setting the stage for the start of the hunt, the music takes off in a pulsating rhythm as the chase ensues. Optional percussion adds to the film-score quality as the piece ultimately builds to a dramatic conclusion. Intense!
