Fantasia + Introduction

YEAR: 2018
DURATION: 125min
CERTIFICATE: U
TYPE: Film

Still one of Disney’s greatest achievements, FANTASIA is a magical series of eight animated shorts inspired by classical music, and performed by the Philadelphia Orchestra under legendary maestro Leopold Stokowski. The most famous of these is “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice”, in which Mickey Mouse steals a wizard’s hat and animates a mop and bucket to clean the floor – until he oversleeps and it all goes badly wrong. But FANTASIA is much more than Mickey’s star turn. Beginning with Bach’s Toccata and Fugue, the orchestra haloed by multi-coloured lights, it journeys unforgettably through the tunes of Tchaikovsky, Stravinsky, Beethoven and more.

With a family-friendly introduction from Neil Bennison, Programme Director of the Royal Concert Hall
