Did You Know?
| Trivia | The order of some of the music has been changed. In the original suite, "Sunrise" comes before "The Painted Desert". In the film, the two selections are switched so that "The Painted Desert" comes first. In the suite, "Cloudburst" is the last movement, while in the film, "Sunset" is the final selection, and the ending of "Cloudburst" is attached to the end of "Sunset". Disney had done a similar re-sequencing of sequences from "The Rite of Spring" in Fantasia (1940) See more » |
