its a nice image but i see a disconnect between your title and the picture. The playing fingers are blurred so i dunno how to interpret this

I don't think the background and the title match. The mundane locale breaks the suspension of disbelief when the word "magical" is used. I think a different background, some side lighting, and maybe some flare would have given more of a "magical" atmosphere, or even just an atmosphere that is more representative of beautiful music.

Good DOF, the lighting is Ok, nice focus on his fingers. Not particularly exciting (especially with the muted colours) but generally quite nice.
