The Opus Pocus is an independent, multimedia publisher founded by writer/producer, Matt Parry, a professional trombone player, former music teacher and graduate of the Royal Academy of Music.

Inspired by the likes of Disney’s Fantasia and fun, subversive, educational series like Horrible Histories, Matt wanted to develop something similar to help children discover the magic of classical music and struck upon the idea of transforming the great symphonic works into funny, action-packed, multimedia stories so that kids absorb the music simply by following the story: it’s education by stealth.

After one successful Kickstarter campaign, two failed record deals, three triumphant orchestral recordings and at least four years hard work, Matt eventually found the money to launch The Opus Pocus …in his bank account, as a result of winning the national Intuit StartUp Britain competition.
