Tiny inhabits the role of Queen of the Light singing "Der Hölle Rache" in Meowzart's The Magic Twig (German Die Zaubersweig). Listen here.
Holding the twig off stage left, Director Tuck blocks Tiny's movements before tossing the prop.
A Renoiresque softening of edges as she lunges.
Another toss, and our camera's eye captures the decisive moment when the twig hangs suspended before the grasping paws. Note Magrittesque distortion of perspective with gigantic cat and miniature chair.
Brava!
Update: Connecticut Yankee in the comments suggests one of Tiny's favorites, Bach's Magnifi-CAT, for an encore:
The Amsterdam Baroque Orchestra under the direction of Ton Koopman (above) peforms Bach's Magnificat in D Major, a natural for Sweet Tiny Pea. Click here for soprano Anna Korondi singing "Et exsultavit spiritus meus" under the baton of Nikolaus Harnoncourt.
Update: Lots more magnifi-cats, magnifi-dogs and all things bright and beautiful at Modulator's Friday Ark #233, now boarding.
Bach's Magnificat for an encore?

Just laying eyes on the magnificence of Tiny nurtures my spirit in a substantial way!
