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.

Bette Midler introduces Piano Concerto No. 2, which tells the story of the Steadfast Tin Soldier.

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!

Sorry Fantasia 2000, but this is the best animated depiction of Beethoven's 5th Symphony ever!

Review of "Mahler: Symphony No. 5." David Bernard, Park Avenue Chamber Symphony. Recursive Classics RC5956731
If you have been enjoying the Park Avenue Chamber Symphony for a while, or if you have been reading Classical Candor for any length of time, you probably know how good the Park Avenue ensemble sound. The orchestra includes mainly players who do other things for a living (like hedge-fund managers, philanthropists, CEO's, UN officials, and so on). They're not amateurs by any means, but they're not full-time musicians, either. Nor is the Park Avenue Chamber Symphony a particularly small group. It's about the size of most other full-sized symphony orchestras. Whatever, whether you’ve heard them or not, believe me, their playing will dispel any skepticism about the quality of their work; everyone involved with the orchestra deserves praise, especially their energetic leader, Maestro David Bernard.

Như ánh sánh rực rỡ chiếu xuyên qua màn đêm thăm thẳm, và lúc ấy ta mới nhận ra bóng tối khổng lồ đang lắc lư tới lui đã bao trùm lên ta, huỷ diệt mọi thứ bên trong ta chỉ trừ nỗi đau của niềm khắc khoải vô tận – cái khắc khoải mà trong đó mọi sự ngân lên trong cung bậc hân hoan đều bị dìm xuống và chết lịm, và chỉ qua nỗi đau ấy – cái thống trị nhưng không huỷ diệt tình yêu, hy vọng và niềm vui – ngực ta như muốn nổ tung bởi hơi thở dồn dập trong những hoà âm tràn ngập âm thanh của niềm đam mê, chúng ta bám lấy cuộc sống và trở thành người nắm giữ linh hồn.
