On November 13, 1940, in Disney’s grandly launched musical animation film "Fantasia," the famous American conductor Stokowski fell down in front of the Philadelphia Symphony Orchestra and shook hands with Mickey Mouse, letting the world know The naughty and cute Mickey Mouse also allows the audience to appreciate the charming charm of the symphonic poem "The Sorcerer's Disciple" by the French composer Ducas.
The music of "The Sorcerer's Disciple" is inspired by Goethe's fairy tale poems. It takes the form of orchestral scherzo and introduces humorous elements under the rigorous framework of classical music. It is innocent and cute, full of magic. Accompanied by wonderful music, Mickey Mouse, the leading star in the animation world, performed well-boarded and brought people into a strange magical world.
Mickey Mouse plays a little magician who has just learned three-legged cat kung fu. He is still a cute face with a low IQ but innocent. He is still curious about everything and loves adventure.
Mickey Mouse's master is a master of magic skills. He has a magical broom. Under the spell of the master, the broom will become a humanoid and help with many housework. Mickey Mouse stole the master's magic hat while the master was away, and cast a spell like the master, and ordered the broom to fill the water tank for him.
The broom really turned into a human shape. Under the guidance of Mickey Mouse, it fetched water, and it became more vigorous as it dries. Mickey Mouse is very proud. He let himself leaning comfortably in the big chair of the master and instructed the broomman to fetch water from buckets to buckets, and then fell into a nap without knowing it.
In his sleep, Mickey Mouse continued to cast the spell. He dreamed that he had cultivated into a great magician, and he was constantly giving orders to the stars and clouds.
We can't help but marvel at the talents of Disney's artists. It is the first time that they have made animation scenes so seamlessly integrated with classical music, animated characters, and musical note beats.
"Fantasia" is Disney’s most artistic work, and it is also Disney’s most re-screened classic cartoon so far. It is also the earliest stereo film in the history of film. The focus of the promotion is to advertise that it is a work that can "listen" to animation and "watch" classical music.
From the perspective of popularizing classical music education for children and even adults, the cartoon "Fantasia" has undoubtedly played a positive role, but the world music industry and European film critics stand in maintaining the sacred connotation of classical music. From the standpoint of purity, criticizing the graphic music of "Fantasia" and simplifying the connotation of classical music are "great rebelliousness".
Mickey Mouse was awakened by the flood of water over his knees, and he found that the Broomman was still endlessly pouring water into the already filled tank, and the whole house had become a world of water.
The water accumulated more and more, Mickey Mouse didn't know the spell to solve the curse. After a chord, the whole song lost its strength, like the tranquility before a storm.
It didn't take long for all the small debris to gradually wake up, and the broomsticks actually cloned themselves into small broomsticks, all of them fetching water more vigorously. Violins, bassoons, double bass tubes, and clarinets competed for themes, and French horns and cornets also came to join in the fun. The music reached unprecedented tension. The water accumulated more and more, and Mickey Mouse knew that he had caused a catastrophe, and was very flustered.
Under the excellent performance of Mickey Mouse, "The Sorcerer's Disciple" has become the most lovable chapter in "Fantasia". Mickey Mouse's appearance of the little magician in red robe has become Disney's most famous for more than 60 years. One of the representative marks.
In 1940, conductor Stokowski and producer Disney won the Oscar Special Honor Award for their rich imagination in the creative and production of "Fantasia" music and their breakthrough achievements in recording technology; in 1998 , "Fantasia" was selected by the American Film Association as one of the 100 classic American business cards in the 20th century; in 2000, Disney launched a new version of "Fantasia 2000", using more exciting animations and music to make people enter the new happily For thousands of years, it is still the funny and cute little magician played by Mickey Mouse that has been continued and preserved.
The master of Mickey Mouse finally appeared. In the heavy brass instrument, the magic master lifted the spell, the music returned to the same slow beat as the overture, and the water came to a halt.
Compared with many other magicians, the story of Mickey Mouse, a little magician, inevitably seems a bit thin. Mickey Mouse is like an ordinary and humble child living around us. His entire mission is to make people happy. To make the audience laugh. However, it is this naughty, overwhelming, careless, impetuous, childish little magician who has been infected with his unique, though imperfect, but innocent and lovely personality for more than half a century. Generations of audiences have brought people a pure and simple happiness.
