Fantasia

“The most sensational sound you'll ever see!”

Deems Taylor (Deems Taylor) sits at a piano to introduce eight animated worlds, each one built from a piece of classical music conducted by Leopold Stokowski and the Philadelphia Orchestra. A sorcerer's apprentice (Walt Disney) commands water to dance; centaurs and fauns romp through a mythic forest; the god Chernabog towers over a mountain. The final segment ends in a procession of robed figures moving through candlelit dimness, their voices rising in prayer.
