Music
We move between three different pieces from Camille Saint-Saens': Suite, Op. 90: II Menuet, and two from Carnival of the Animals:Aviary and the Cuckoo in the Heart of the Woods.
We hit Juneau from Danny Bensi and Sander Jurriaans' score to Wildlike.
And The Waltz from their score to 5 to 7.
And there's a total gem from George Mukabi called Dila Ni Dila in there too.
