I have a show coming up fairly soon at a library and it is for some big summer party. but the theme of the party is music, and the lady wants me to get as much music into my act as possible. I'm looking for some good songs to use in my act and/or some creative uses of music with magic. any ideas? thanx for the help!!

Are you looking for routines to do to music or just music to play? If routines, it is kind of late, but music is easy. I turned a routine into a Harry Potter theme (not hard at all and relates to books for that library) and when you look for volunteers or need a dramatic moment, you play the theme song. A balloon pops, put it on the ground take off ur hat and play Taps or something. The ideas are endles. Play a song while lookign for a prop, this can be verry funny.
You know you are a magician when you have boxes full of lecture notes you have never read, but still are excited about going out and buying more.

Library usually have a lot of c/d's that you can check out.
I would either theme it to your consumers, or use of music that you like and share your love of i.e. jazz, swing, or ??? Perhaps a combination of the two above suggestions. Do you play an instrument. I bring my music together with my magic for a great and fun ..... Enjoy and please share the outcome. Harris

Thank you guys so much for your suggestions, I did the show yesterday and it went great. a lot of my theme is rock music, since it kind of fits me. the kids' attention was kept longer than I would have normally expected. (she wanted an hour show for kids 2-10 ?!?!?!?) I did the zombie to a rock song (sounds weird, doesn't it? but it actually fit it really nicely) and I remember when I put the the cloth over the ball and it disappeared and started floating through the cloth there was a general gasp from the younger crowd. but it went well, thanx for all the advice!!!
