Repertoire 2 by Asi Wind

This video offers a thoughtful review of Asi Wind's "Repertoire 2," exploring its merits not just as a magic book, but as a work of art. The reviewer delves into what elevates a magic instructional book to an artistic level, drawing parallels to supporting Renaissance patrons and fostering innovation within the magic community. "Repertoire 2" builds upon the foundation of Wind's acclaimed "Repertoire 1," maintaining a similar aesthetic with a striking black leather-bound cover and watercolor illustrations. While the book features eight tricks, two forcing techniques, and detailed sections on the XY Deck and Card to Box Project, it's primarily card-focused, showcasing routines from Wind's professional repertoire. The reviewer highlights the practicality of the material, the book's intermediate difficulty, and the value of supporting magic artists, ultimately awarding it a score of 9 out of 10. Despite a slight preference for the artwork in the first book, the reviewer strongly recommends "Repertoire 2" to magicians seeking to learn from a respected performer and appreciate the artistic side of magic.
