The Classic Magic of Michael Vincent-Volume 3Once in every generation is born an individual whose work becomes known worldwide as a touchstone for excellence. With the hands of an artist and the soul of a poet, Michael is just such an individual.
His sleight-of-hand is masterful, his presentations are inventive and his performances are the epitome of class and sophistication.
As the only magician in history to have won the prestigious title of "Magic Circle Close-up Magician of the Year" three times, Michael has spent the better part of three decades honing his skills to become one of finest magicians that Great Britain has ever produced.
This DVD collection showcases his world-class magic in front of a live audience and features some of the most stunning magic ever filmed. As you watch it, you will experience for yourself why Michael's stunning presentations are regarded by audiences and fellow professionals alike as some of the very best in the world today.

This section is an intriguing conversation about the benefits of mastering “The Cull” so that you can work with a borrowed deck. Here, Michael performs some impromptu card magic with a deck supplied by Chris Harding.
What makes this section of the DVD so compelling is the fact that Michael performs and then explains a number of routines which would normally require you to begin with your deck stacked. This could be the most valuable study for all aspiring students of card magic.
Ascension - Michael’s exquisite handling for the classic “Ambitious Aces”, inspired by an idea of James Swain’s.
A Final Conversation with Chris Harding
In this final conversation, Michael imparts his knowledge and wisdom in the hope that it inspires you all to continue thinking and expanding the possibilities for your magic.
Bonus Explanation
The Ladies Looking Glass - Here is a master class in how to take ancient classic first published in 1868 and bring it kicking and screaming into the 21st century. Michael’s performance and explanation is an inspired study in technical mastery and artistic self - expression; Professor Comte and Robert Houdin would have loved this!
