Walt Disney’s Fantasia

Fantasia is a 1940 American animated film produced by Walt Disney.  it is the third Disney animated movie film. The film consists of eight animated segments set to pieces of classical music conducted by Leopold Stokowski , seven of which are performed by the Philadelphia Orchestra.  Music critic and composer Deems Taylor acts as the film's Master of Ceremonies, providing a live-action introduction to each animated segment.  Disney settled on the film's concept in 1938 as work neared completion on The Sorcerer's Apprentice, an elaborate  Silly Symphonies short designed as a comeback role for Mickey Mouse, who had declined in popularity.  As production costs grew higher than what it could earn, Disney decided to include the short in a feature-length film with other segments set to classical pieces.  Over the years, the movie has developed a huge cult following.
