Friday the 13th

August 13, 2010 at 9:52 AM

Today is Friday the 13th, a good time to listen to Night on Bald Mountain with the animation in Disney's classic film Fantasia.  This is low tech but very scary.

Thanks, Pauline.  I love the original Fantasia!  My daughter is studying the piano now, and her teacher gave her a simplified version of the last movement of Beethoven's 6th.  Both of us think of the scene after the storm in Fantasia when she practices it.  I hope she DOES study Night on Bald Mountain some day.  What a contrast.
