This movie has been seen in music and art classes in junior and senior high schools. It seems that the teachers have rated it very well. I've seen it a few times myself, and it's about five times in total.

Movies made for music
The music in the film serves the film, while Fantasia and Fantasia 2000 are the opposite.

Steve Martin: You know what's amazing is that many of these musicians are playing for the very first time, thanks to "Steve Martin's Two-week Master Musician Home-Study Course". More about that later. Hello and welcome to Fantasia 2000. It's been more than sixty years since Walt Disney and his artists teamed with maestro Leopold Stokowski to create a film they titled "The Concert Feature". I think we're all glad they changed the name to "Fantasia". You know, "Fantasia" was meant to be a perpetual work in progress.

Steve Martin: Ahh, thank you. All right, boys, let's...
[bow slips from his hands]
Steve Martin: Oh! Oh, sorry. Could I have another stick thingy, please? Oh, and camera back on me. Camera back on me. Ca... Am I done?
Itzhak Perlman: [introducing Pines of Rome] When you hear a title like "Pines of Rome", you may think of tree-lined streets and romantic ruins. But when the Disney animators heard this music, they thought of something completely different. Here is the Chicago Symphony Orchestra conducted by maestro James Levine, performing Ottorino Respighi's "Pines of Rome."

James Earl Jones: [introducing the Carnival of the Animals] These drawing boards have been the birthplace of some of the most beloved animal characters of all time. So it's no surprise that they choose for our next segment, "The Carnival of the Animals" by Camille Saint-Saëns. Here the sensitive strains of impressionistic music combine with the subtle artistry of the animator to finally answer that age old question: "What is man's relationship to nature?"
[is handed a piece of paper]
James Earl Jones: Oh, sorry... That age old question: "What would happen if you gave a yo-yo to a flock of flamingos?"
[turns to look off-camera]
James Earl Jones: Who wrote this?
