The Musical Realm: Look to the Light and Listen to the Music Within

During his first piano lesson, Matthew, a 13 year old boy, tells his new piano teacher, Mr. Darius, that he hates practicing the piano. The mysterious old piano teacher smiled slyly and proclaimed, "As I said before, you will never truly enjoy practicing or playing the piano, until you get inside the music!"Puzzled, Matthew asked Mr. Darius what he meant. All of a sudden, the sheet music on the piano in front of him began to glow. The sound of thunder echoed from the music and then a misty fog arose from the tattered and torn pages and then mystically and magically filled the room. Without any warning, lightning burst from the music with a loud crack and immediately illuminated the room. All at once, multi-colored beams of light instantly shot out from the old piano music in every direction. Various hues of color and dust that Matthew thought must be fairy dust, or something similar to it, floated around the room."What is happening, Mr. Darius?" Matthew screamed in terror."This is the start of your first piano lesson, Matthew. You are finally going to get inside the music and discover what it is all about, once and for all, my young friend!" yelled Mr. Darius over the howling wind and the mysterious screams coming from within the music."It's time you learn the eternal importance of music, and you can only do so within The Musical Realm," explained Mr. Darius, matter-of-factly. He smiled slyly - almost mischievously - and winked with his left eye. With that, Matthew was sucked into the musical score and instantly disappeared.Matthew enters a series of worlds unlike any he has ever seen before.
