Krivo Sadovsko Horo

This is a part of the Soundtrack I wrote with La Pêche for George Méliès's awesome 1904 movie "voyage à travers l'impossible".

This theme is played when the explorers finally land on the Sun, but realize that the scorching heat is unbearable ; they decide to use their Glacier Box but end up freezing. Thanks to Mabouloff's ingenuity, they thaw and manage to escape !
