When originally released in 1940, Fantasia not only established animation as a true art form, it revolutionised motion picture sound.
Never before has a film used a stereophonic system to surround it's audience with music.
In celebration of Fantasia's 60th anniversary, Leopold Stokokowski's original recordings have been carefully cleaned & restored & repackaged as a double CD edition.
Fantasia includes selections by Bach, Beethoven, Tchaikovsky, Stravinsky, Mussorgsky, Ponchielli & Schubert.
