The Haunted CarouselJoseph Eidson.
Imagine a circus that only comes to life at
midnight, where tents glow in the darkness while
ghostly figures appear and disappear. Strange
music, haunting and off kilter, comes from a
creaking carousel, breaking the eerie silence of
the night. Suddenly the music softens as the sun
begins to rise, and the circus fades like a distant
dream. Delightfully spooky!

driving style and coming to a rousing conclusion.

beautiful, triumphant fanfare.
