What
movies do you plan to watch this weekend? Write to me and let me know your
impressions of the music. Do you feel like certain films help expose you to
classical music you might otherwise have never heard?
Another classic example of setting cartoons to classical music is Disney's Fantasia and the newer Fantasia 2000. I may re-watch these this weekend to bring back memories of my childhood and first exposure to classical music. Do you have a favorite selection from either of these films? My favorite is Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue set to a scene in New York in Fantasia 2000. Here is just an excerpt from the film.
