"The Dance of Eternity" WITH scrolling transcription!

Follow along to time signature land and enjoy one of Dream Theater's instrumental masterpieces with every note whizzing by.

If you know keyframing, you know what I mean. 🥵

I kept the video to one angle to limit the distractions. But if you want to check out the multi-camera version-
