Notes

The movie segment begins by showing us a group of instruments led by a clarinet. At one point four instruments (bass, cymbal, snare and bass drums) turn into lying juggling balls played by clarinet. The introduction of the piano, as a guiding instrument, shows as an endless keyboard operated by a pair of human hands. The clarinet returns to the lead, dancing on colored discs. A boxing match begins between bass and clarinet. In the imperative sounds of drums, the instruments come together in a rush to the heights. In the end, the instruments disappear, one by one, in an imaginary vortex.
