The Horn Blows at Midnight

por

The Horn Blows at Midnight follows trumpet player Athanael, whose music draws him into a fantastical struggle between heaven and hell. The story blends show-business comedy with supernatural adventure, as an ordinary musician finds himself caught up in a cosmic conflict.

Presented as a radio dramatization, the program uses dialogue, music, and sound effects to bring its shifting worlds to life. The trumpet is central to the tale, linking Athanael’s musical ambitions with the strange events that unfold around him.

The result is a playful, imaginative mix of comedy and fantasy, moving between the familiar world of a working musician and a larger-than-life celestial setting. It offers a lively change of pace for listeners drawn to classic radio drama with a whimsical premise.
