A failed musician contemplating suicide makes a deal with the Devil for one fabulous year at the end of which he must surrender his life. The devil sends packs of crows to the wires outside the man's window which represent the musical notes to the symphony he writes down as the crows shift their positions. He performs the symphony and gains instant fame. At the end of the year, he tries to welsh on the deal, but the crows tear at him and he becomes transformed into a scarecrow out in the field.
