Ok literally one person expressed an inkling of interest in Fantasia 2000, so that’s my sign to let y’all know how amazing the music and animation is.
First, the movie opens with Beethoven’s Symphony no. 5, telling a story of good and evil with butterflies and bats in an abstract style of animation.

Steve Martin comes and introduces the concept of Fantasia, then Itzhak Perlman introduces the next song: Pines of Rome, which tells the story of a pod of humpback whales, specifically two whales and their baby.

[image description: a bunch of people are crowded in a subway car. Anyone tall enough is holding onto those handlebars that hang from the ceiling. Everyone looks grumpy, and each person is one color with various shades and tints]
Bette Midler introduces Piano Concerto No. 2, which tells the story of the Steadfast Tin Soldier.
Tumblr media
[image description: the tin soldier, dressed in a red and white uniform, stands with a ballerina figurine. The ballerina has brown curly hair and a white ballet dress with blue trim. They gaze lovingly into each other’s eyes]
James Earl Jones then introduces Carnival of Animals, which is a story about a flamingo that is shamed by his flock for his love of yo-yos. I’m not making this up.

Penn and Teller perform magic tricks as they introduce The Sorcerer’s Apprentice, the only animated sequence also used in the original Fantasia. Mickey Mouse is the apprentice of a powerful magician, but when he tries to use magic to take care of his chores, he realizes he’s created more trouble than he can fix.

James Levine introduces Pomp and Circumstance, although he is interrupted as Mickey Mouse tries to find the star of this story: Donald Duck. Donald Duck helps Noah load animals onto the ark before the big flood, and he and Daisy think they’ve lost each other forever]
Tumblr media
[image description: Donald Duck stands in the foreground, satisfied, as many animals walk towards Noah’s ark]
Last but not least, Angela Lansbury introduces the final song, The Firebird Suite, which tells of the cycle of life, death, and rebirth.

Hopefully the beauty of these images convince y’all to give this movie a try. And maybe you recognize some of the musical pieces!

Sergei Rachmaninov, Piano concerto nº 2 in C minor, op. 18 (II. Adagio sostenuto). Claudio Abbado, director Hélène Grimaud, piano
Fast zwölf Jahre sind vergangen, und ich glaube, ich erkenne immer noch die alte Intensität. Ich hoffe, das Mittagslicht (oh, Wacquez) ist freundlich zu ihm.
