Danse Macabre

Well, a VERY early picture, just to wish you all a happy halloween :D

I think if one piece of music represented Halloween to me it would have to be 'Danse Macabre' (or Dance of death) by Saint-Saëns. It starts of with the harp playing one note 12 times, representing the clock striking midnight, everything goes quiet then the solo violin breaks the silence with a loud dis-chord (a chord that doesn't sound right) as it represents the devil. He plays his tune while all of the ghosts come out of their graves to dance.

This is my interpretation of that, with a little halloween added in of course ;D Enjoy! :)

I've been meaning to comment on this one for a while *been lazy about commenting* It's so awesome! Possibly my favorite picture you've done so far! I love the crow in the tree, and the overall composition is just really nice! Plus, I thought it was cool that you used the french word for dance. Cool concept too, sort of "phantom of the Opera" like.
