I guess you could call it that! It’s one of my all-time favorites. I absolutely love Walt Disney’s pairing of animation with classical music! I never tire of watching it.
The “Night on Bald Mountain-Ave Maria” pairing is my favorite sequence in the whole movie.

Just a mention to “Fantasia 2000”- even tho Walt was long gone when this was produced, it carried the spirit of the original quite well, I thought. I have loved Resphigi’s “Pines of Rome” for a long time, and was impressed with what Disney Studios did with it. Gershwin’s “Rhapsody in Blue” was great in the movie, but my favorite, for a big finish, was definitely Stravinsky’s “Firebird”. The Forest Nymph, the destruction and the rebirth of the forest-just wonderful.

As you can guess, I just love these two movies. I strongly recommend seeing them if they sound like something someone might be interested in.
