In 2000, Disney decided to make a new version in honor of Fantasia's 60th birthday. This is Fantasia 2000 (Fantasy Millennium Edition). The Millennium Edition is an almost brand new work, except for "The Sorcerer's Elementary Apprentice", other tracks and animations are brand new.
It has been more than 10 years since the first time I watched "Fantasia 2000", but I still remember being completely shocked when I saw the swarms of big whales flying gracefully in the sky, I was completly charmed.
As a work of art, Fantasia is not just a movie, it is classical music, Disney animation, it is imagination and fantasy world... Let's just say, what the best artists in the world can give you, you can get it in Fantasia .
Maybe a bit of an exaggeration, but I honestly feel sorry for a kid who hasn't seen Fantasia. So, as a parent, don't miss it. When the child is growing up, watch this movie with him, it will be an incomparably beautiful experience.
Introduction to the music and pictures of "Fantasia 2000":
1. Beethoven's Symphony No.5 (Fate) begins with two geometric butterflies dancing on the screen.
2, Respighi's "Pines of Rome" (Pines of Rome), a big whale swims mesmerizingly!
3. Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue (Rhapsody in Blue) has a strong jazz flavor and is most suitable for the city of New York. The film outlines the life of the metropolis with minimalist lines.
4. Shostakovich's Piano Concerto No. 2 - Express Edition (Piano Concerto No. 2, Allegro, Opus 102) is matched with Andersen's famous fairy tale "The Tough Tin Soldier".

6. Duka's "The Sorcerer's Apprentice" is the only track remaining. The naughty little apprentice played by Disney's brother Mickey.
7. Elgar's Pomp & Circumstance matches the story of "Noah's Ark" in the Bible. This time, Disney let Donald Duck play Noah and drove a lot of animals on the ark on the eve of the storm. , and finally all the animals boarded the deck of the ark to face a bright future together.
8. Stravinsky's Firebird Suite (Firebird Suite) is used as the ending song. The picture shows the endless life of all things in nature. Firebirds fly and burn the whole sky, drawing a gorgeous rest for the film.
