Additional Details:
Fantasia Originally released in 1941 as the first stereophonic motion picture, Fantasia was hailed as a milestone in the blending of sound and picture. Utilizing recent innovations in sound technology, Fantasia will once again feature an innovative state-of-the-art soundtrack. The classic cartoon feature was first recorded in 1937 with Walt Disney and Leopold Stokowski combining their talents. Conducting the 121-piece symphony orchestra and 50-voice choir for the new sound track is Irwin Kostal, a two-time Academy Award winner - for West Side Story and Sound of Music. According to Kostal, "Fantasia is still the most effective blending of sound and picture in a theatrical motion picture. It was not only years ahead of its time as a motion picture, it also pioneered stereo sound with "Fantasound", a then revolutionary system for recording sound in several tracks onto one piece of film"
