Fantasia
Ambitious animated epic from Disney studios, which includes sequences set to music by – amongst others – Bach, Tchaikovsky, Stravinsky, Mussorgsky, Schubert and Beethoven. Also featured is the famous ‘Sorcerer’s Apprentice’ routine, in which Mickey Mouse (voiced by Walt himself for the last time) creates magical mayhem when he tries to get his chores done with the aid of a spell or two.
Fantasia 2000
A semi-sequel to Disney’s 1940 classic ‘Fantasia’ which features the original film’s most famous sequence – the Mickey Mouse adventure ‘The Sorcerer’s Apprentice’ – plus seven other all-new animated interpretations of classical music. Highlights include the interwoven stories of a group of 1930s New Yorkers accompanied by Gershwin’s ‘Rhapsody in Blue’, the volcanic eruptions which illustrate Stravinsky’s ‘Firebird Suite’, and the story of Noah, his ark, and his assistant Donald Duck, played out to the strains of Elgar’s ‘Pomp and Circumstance’.
