Hey Disney Music Fans!

I am happy to share with you a podcast about Fantasia 2000! My friend Aaron Kaplan has again joined me on this journey, and has some VERY interesting facts about the movie that you are gonna love hearing!

This is also a long episode. I decided I didn't want to split it up. Take your time, and enjoy the episode! We certainly enjoyed recording it!

As always, I would love to hear from you! I want this to be a conversation, not just a one-way conversation (which really isn't a conversation. That is more of a lecture!) You can email me at [email protected].

Also, be sure to check out my other podcast The Goofy Guy Podcast! We talk about Disney news and various Disney Topics! It comes out twice a week, and it is a lot of fun! You can find it where you get this podcast! You can also sign up for The Goofy Guy newsletter at www.thegoofyguy.com It is a great place to get more Disney fun!

Thanks, and here we go!

Hey Disney Music fans!

Welcome to another episode of Magic Music Review!

I know this one did not come out when planned, but it's a great episode. We are talking about the second half of the 1940 classic Fantasia!

I'm joined by Aaron Kaplan, and we have a great time talking about the music, the animation, and the love we have for this work.

I hope that you enjoy it as much as we did making it!

Hey Disney Music Lovers!

Welcome to another episode of Magic Music Review. In this episode we are talking about Fantasia from 1940. This is the first of two episodes. There is that much to talk about in this amazing movie! It is a beautiful masterpiece that I feel sometimes gets overlooked in the history of movies, not just Disney movies.

I am joined by Aaron Kaplan, and he has some wonderful facts and details that he shares which really bring the music to another level.

Hey Everyone!

We are back with another episode of the Magic Music Review! 

I'm so excited about this episode! We are talking about the 1994 Disney Animated Classic, The Lion King! There is so much great stuff to talk about with this masterpiece!

Aaron Kaplan is with me again to talk about this film! He first saw it when he was 5! So this definitely has a special place in his heart!

This movie has great songs and a great score! Elton John (Music) did a brilliant job with Tim Rice (Lyrics) and Hanz Zimmer (Score). We also talk about the impact that Lebo M. had on the music in this movie! He is an unsung hero in this story!

Hello all!

In this episode, we are talking about one of my top ten favorite movies. Enchanted! I love this movie so much. It is a beautiful homage and send-up of Disney princess movies. There are lots of little nods to the princesses of the past. And Amy Adams is wonderful as Gisselle! I love the music in this film as it is so clever and well done. I can't wait to share it with you!

Hi Everyone!

Here is Part 2 of my interview with Deke Sharon! If you haven't heard part 1 yet, be sure to go back and listen to Episode 16! It's great!

In this part we talk about the live performance of DCappella and discuss some of the music arrangements for the group, and the thought behind them. We try not to geek out too much. Sometimes you just can't help it. It is a lot of great information that I'm sure you are going to love. Deke is such a great guy, and that really comes through in this interview!

Deke Sharon can be found on all the socials below:

1. Twitter: @dekesharon

And he has a podcast called "Counterpoint" that you can listen to here:

• Counterpoint Podcast

2. So You Want to Sing A Cappella

3. A Cappella

4. The Heart Of Vocal Harmony

You can find all of the on Amazon.com.
