Magic Music Review - Ep 13 - Peter Pan

Cock-a-doodle-doo!
This is a fun week! We are going to go to the second start to the right and straight on til morning! Yes, you guess it, Peter Pan! I love this movie, and I think the music is not as appreciated as it should be. There is also some controversy with this movie, although Disney tends to ignore that because it is so iconic. It has some of the most well known Disney music in their music catalog!

Magic Music Review - Ep 11 - Pocahontas
Sunday Nov 11, 2018
Sunday Nov 11, 2018
Hi All!
This week we are talking about an under appreciated Disney movie, Pocahontas. It is a beautifully animated film with an amazing score and songs by Alan Menken and Stephen Schwartz. It was their first collaboration, and I believe it was a great one! It was also a change for Disney to try and create a serious animated movie.

Magic Music Review - Ep10 - Disney Villains - Simply Sinister Songs
Sunday Oct 21, 2018
Sunday Oct 21, 2018
Hello!
Today we explore some of the "Darker Side" of Disney music by listening to some songs about and sung by villains! Villains are some of my favorite characters, and they also have some of my favorite songs. Some of the songs are funny, some are scary, and all of them are great! Disney Villains - Simply Sinister Songs are just some of the many villain songs in the Disney canon of music. It's a great addition to any Disney music lovers collection!

Hi!
Today we are going to take a look at the feline creature! We are talking about the Disney Animated Feature "The Aristocats"!
In this episode we talk a little about French music of the time and listen to a little bit to get a flavor of France before we listen to all of the rest of the music. We also go over the story line, and insert the music at the places it should be. It's a fun short episode that I hope you like!

Magic Music Review - Ep. 8 - Dumbo
Sunday May 13, 2018
Sunday May 13, 2018
Hi Everyone!
This episode we are going to the Circus with DUMBO!! I love the circus! I love circus music and the romance and nostalgia of going to the circus! Especially the circus around the turn of the 20th century!
In this episode we talk a little about the history of circus music and listen to a few circus marches. We then dive into the music of the animated feature Dumbo! I believe Dumbo has some of the most iconic music in the Disney music catalogue, including one of my favorite Disney songs! I'm excited to share this episode with you all!
