If you work at any of the Disney studios or theme parks, in any of their wide range of properties, you can say you work for the “Mouse.” In 1940 the release of Fantasia was built on what was known as a Silly Symphony. It was the story of the Sorcerer’s Apprentice. With that one eleven and a half minute composition by Paul Dukas, the Disney staff assembled seven other classical music favorites and along with a silhouette of Leopold Stowkoski and the Philadelphia Orchestra and wonderful animation and the first ever use of stereo sound for the two hour feature film Fantasia.
