[Stabiiliize]

I like the ear-to-ear effect thing you have going there man. :)

Very cool

[xellestar]

IM SANDER F***ING COHEN!!!!

[electricmastro]

@xellestar Bioschock reference?

[xellestar]

@electricmastro hehehe :D

[violinist142]

What a beautiful piece of music! I couldn't ask for more than the memories I have of playing this piece with my wonderful stand partner!

[cddmanful]

One of my favorite parts of Fantasia, for the beauty of the visuals.

[jhyu8899]

the part at 1:25 is so cool :D

[den2662]

Superbe vidéo tant pour la musique de Tchaikowsky que pour la féérie du Fantasia de Disney !

Merci.

Wonderful video as well for the music of Tchaikovsky than for the magic of Disne's Fantasia ! Thank you.

[o3oSeyren]

wow :) dad showed me this, telling me that he watched it when he was smaller than me, black and white. AWESOME <3 it's really lovely :3

[superdupertyson]

i can feel this song through my entire body.. amazing =)

[constantinad1]

the most wonderful video tied in perfectly with one of the finest pieces of classical music. thumbs up!!

[constantinad1]

Το πιο υπέροχο συνοδευτικό βίντεο που έχω δει στη ζωή μου για ένα από τα πιο ποιητικά δημιουργήματα κλασσικής μουσικής. Μπράβο.

[Shadowbane509]

Crap, pressed the wrong button. Anyways, it's the LATIN alphabet. The Romans didn't speak Roman, they spoke Latin.

[Shadowbane509]

[christilene62]

Amazing video on an extraordinary , magical musical theme !!!

[promontorium]

Damn those legs go all the way up.

[sodapop1231231]

this is magnificent! and spongebob really?

[KookieKrisp12]

I heard this on spongebob LOL.

[nintendoandsega1990]

BEAUTIFUL!!

[matthmatthmatth]

The way that the music oscillates from left ear, centre, and right ear makes me feel like I am dancing to the waltz! Great success!

[windstorm1000]

genius segment--animated with a child's spirit in mind. Also good for adults.  Pure whimsy and orchestral animation--perfectly matching the enchanting music. Such warmth and sparkle. All before CGI!!

[paya1451]

This reminds me of the changing seasons when they do this.........I love Fanstasia

[loulie1997]

i love the nutcracker! :)

[rich79191]

Surround SoundS!!!

[dgs772]

Thumbs up if you are listening in STEREO

[CaptainViral84]

Bravo Bravo Bravo,This is some of the finest pices of Disney animtation that i ever seen in my life and this is some of the reasons why i love inc and cell animtation my whole life.

[Titanic1986]

This and Ave Maria were always my favorite. I especially love the ice and snowflakes! Although I'm surprised they didn't do that for the Nutcracker ballet, since that is more reminiscent of Christmas.

[safwanfoy]

So many memories!!! :') I miss the days when I would tirelessly watch Fantasia everyday... If only I could go back...

[Replicaate]

This was, and remains, one of my favorite parts of the whole movie. It's just beautiful.

[distastefulreverie]

is the story of the nutcracker in Fantasia? I'm confused...what exactly is Fantasia?

[GwinnyBieber98]

@distastefulreverie a fantastic disney movie,you should rent it

[pyschogambitable]

@distastefulreverie the actual story of the Nutcracker isn't actually in Fantasia. Essentially, it's a movie made up of a series of shorts done to classical music. The artists listened to the songs and drew what came to mind. 

[rememberxjuly]

Absolutely every frame is a picture I would hang on my wall...

Sometimes watching these classics breaks my heart. Raised on drawn Disney animation, it was always my dream to animate a movie and bring to life artwork, to really see a dress I drew billow in sparkling golden wind, and make a beautiful face flutter its lashes, or turn rosy from cold.

We've pulled so far away from drawn animation...it was such a let down for me. At least I can still watch the old classics.

[Polyphemus47]

@rememberxjuly I had to look twice to be sure I hadn't written this post myself. I dreamed of being an animator for most of my life. Now that I'm retired, and have the time, the inspiration just isn't there. I still watch the CGI films, and can still see them as art, the images have nothing like the warmth of hand-drawn.

[FierceAd]

thumbs up if u watch this in 20 FUCKING 11 :D

[IntroitusM]

Remembers... :_)

[pikiwiki]

i like tchaikovsky the best

[Aranel1200]

argument over how to pronounce names on a INTERNATIONAL website?.....really?...really? I mean if your going to troll and argue over stupid things, would you people at least be more creative?

[FlorenceAnneE]

I want to cry. :'( I miss the classic Walt Disney. I miss 2D animations, I miss Mickey's, Donald's and Goofy's original voices. I miss everything...

[jimjamsim]

i want to be an ice fairy :D

[timebandit754]

Even though I've seen many versions of the Nutcracker, this is always the version I think of when I hear the Waltz of the Flower Fairies. But it can't compare with the Tom and Jerry version.

[windstorm1000]

wonderful childlike quality....all before CGI!!!

[windstorm1000]

This is incredibly magical. The fantastic artistry of so many.  It bring's T.'s music to life in a different way that takes one's breath away.

[aznoodleboi96]

With headphones. 1:25 Left to the right, right to the left, left to the right. :]

[GlynnValley]

Music is so peaceful. Just makes me want to spin in the air.

[iplaycello1]

@evenstar14189 I'm pretty sure it's the roman alphabet,but i could be wrong

[crazitaco]

aww the ice fairies were always my favorite, i loved the way they gracefully skate creating lovely swirls of ice! and the sparkling snowflake fairies are a nice touch too! :D

now if only it actually snowed down here..... TT_TT

[parasiteeve06]

j'adore !!!

[bladerunnerchile]

02:08 best part...pure romantic russian era

[michieroses]

11 people wanted T&A from the ice faeries :(

[firegarden90]

Oh god. I'm re-living Bioshock....

[TheBuntyFish]

Anyone who dislikes this is obviously a sufferer of hay fever, nuff said.

[jelekbanget123]

Great piece. And I love the way they visualize the music!

[coolsoxs678]

A magical world! How long have not seen these lovely fairy! I've always loved the fairy ice skating over the water so casually

[timebandit754]

well, I meant to come here to watch my all time favorite version of the Waltz of the Flower fairies, but now I'm annoyed by this argument on how to pronounce a name. aren't there forums for that? or, like, a debate club?

[andynightwing]

@timebandit754 Totally agree with you! I'm REALLY thinking of deleting all this annoying argument.

[Velvetspoonful]

@andynightwing Damn,debate clubs exists?

[kimcake98]

@timebandit754 u should just delete the srguement if it keeps on going

[babygrandmother]

@timebandit754 i agree to some extent but you don't have to read the comments dumbo, youtube is a public forum and one of the most easily accessible, so with the good you get some crap rants or debates aswell yea

[RadulaKisses]

I remember watching this movie when I was a small child and fell in love with the music and this scene. I forgot about the movie until now watching this and now I want to watch it again, thanks for sharing!

[LinguistTroubadour]

This is what happens when one alphabet gets ahold of so many countries - in this case Roman. Some people think their countries own the thing and their ways of writing is the only right way. Good to know our country owns our own unique alphabet, it's just so damn obviously idiotic how this can even become an issue. Hilarious. Please stop this if you want to avoid making a fool of yourself, and stop making people care about wrong things about language when they came here to listen to music.

[andynightwing]

@LinguistTroubadour WELL SAID!!! Thank you! =)

[evenstar14189]

@LinguistTroubadour : I agree with you, but it's called the Latin alphabet, not the Roman alphabet:P

[kelsokutie89]

completely magical ♥

[NEMERITEANDSHUNI]

Damn where my childhood gone to

[nargarothfreak666]

whay do i have so many negative reactions?

i am telling the truth! and nothing more

but if you guys cant handle it fine by me!

than you learn nothing!

[andynightwing]

@nargarothfreak666 Don't know why the negative reactions, but, like I said, maybe Tchaikovsky is that kind of name spelled a little different because of the language you are using.

So, you're not wrong. Neither we are! =)

Chill out, we all end up learning something!

[nargarothfreak666]

@andynightwing

You know he is from russia right?

so it is Tsjaikovski not Tchaikovsky a name is a name you cant misspell a name

that is not possible you got a name with your birth and he got and that is Tsjaikovski.

so you guys are wrong not me

Cheers!

[andynightwing]

@nargarothfreak666 Oh my... Do we REALY need to get into this?

From Wikipedia: Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky (Russian: Пётр Ильич Чайковский)

See?

Doesn't matter who's wrong or right. It DOES matter the beauty of this song. Don't you think?

Here in Brazil we call "Miguelângelo" instead of "Michelangelo". Anyway, his work is worthy WAAAAAAAAAAAAY beyond the way his name's spelled, isn't it?

At least, that's what I think!

Peace!

[nargarothfreak666]

@andynightwing

Good for you.

[stringcheese0902]

@nargarothfreak666 as andynightwing said, the name he got with his birth was Чайковский, and the Romanized version that is most commonly used is Tchaikovsky. I have never in my life seen it spelled Tsjaikovski.

[nargarothfreak666]

@stringcheese0902

ookey look

Пётр Ильич Чайковский russian version of Pjotr Iljitsj Tsjaikovski

type it in google translate and you se tsjaikowvki

that is his real brith name not tchaikovsky.

Cheers!

[LinguistTroubadour]

@nargarothfreak666 Чайковский is cryptic alphabet: Russian. Tsjaikovski? Sure in Russian but it's Not in English. Please, do you realize what language are we talking in? 'Tsj' just doesn't exist in the English realm, you write like that no one in the English region can read it, is that what you want? Just as 'oi' is read 'wa' in french but 'oi' in English.

[nargarothfreak666]

@LinguistTroubadour

well ookey but do you know

A NAME DOSENT CHANGE IN WHAT KIND OF LANGUAGE!

do you think that your name is spelled difrent in russland than in england?

no it dosent and you know whay? NAMES DOSENT CHANGE!!!

Cheers!

[stringcheese0902]

@nargarothfreak666 exactly! NAMES DON'T CHANGE!!!!!!!! His name is Чайковский. That's all there is to it.

[pyschogambitable]

@stringcheese0902 sorry to but in on this a couple of months late, but names are capable of changing depending on the language they are being spoken in. Example, if you're name is James and you went to a Gaelic speaking community, they would call you Seamus -why? because that is the gaelic version. I'm not taking this out of history or translators, this information has come from countless experiences while traveling with friends through gaelic speaking communities in Ireland.

[LinguistTroubadour]

@nargarothfreak666 Since I have nothing better to do, let's play around more while listening to dear pixies. I just want to know my limits of making people understand. So yes, let's take for example a gal I know who is named Mirine. Her name is Mirine and it doesn't change, right? Well actually that's not her name because her name cannot be expressed in English alphabet. It can be Mirine, or Meerine, or even Meeline, or Milineh, whatever and they're all fine and they're all wrong.

[LinguistTroubadour]

@nargarothfreak666 Her real name is 미리내 and spelled 미리내 and pronounced 미리내 and that's her real name. So does she write 미리내 when she writes her name in English? No, she writes Mirine, because it's seamlessly English. Now this composer's name is Чайковский. Period. RUSSIAN. That's his real name, as you said. Does that mean we should write it like that in English? No, we write Tchaikovsky because that is as close to how we can pronounce it in English the word Чайковский. Now do you understand?

[nargarothfreak666]

@LinguistTroubadour

wierd here in holland we write every thing original

so we write tsjaikovski and we do that with every name

[LinguistTroubadour]

@nargarothfreak666 Well I don't know much about holland if not at all, so given that you're speaking the truth, good to know. Just, not true in English, and that's what matters here. And I'm sorry even in hollish, names from our country wouldn't be original. We have different sets of pronunciation and alphabets. Again, the Roman Alphabet thing...

[japsocute]

@nargarothfreak666 you can call me japhet or japeth or J4PH3+, whichever one you like.

i'm only here for the pixies.

Cheers!

[LinguistTroubadour]

@nargarothfreak666 Okay so, THANK YOU, his nam is Pjotr Iljitsj Tsjaikovski in Russian Cryptic Alphabet, thank you really, we didn't know that, good to know, we learn something new and tremendously important, terrific. Just fine. But in English Alphabet, please, I mean how is it even read, Pujotruh Itsy Ts..jai... whatever. I mean do you understand how syllables work? Now I think here, You need to learn something from Us. Otherwise you're just pompous and a face I'll remember Russians by.

[stringcheese0902]

@nargarothfreak666 You really think Google Translate is perfect? It's not, just so you know.

[RadulaKisses]

@nargarothfreak666

And to that dude that's fussing about names, before you go about trying to police people with names, how about learn how to write in English correctly and with good grammar. It would probably make us not find you as laughable as you are making yourself out to be. Sorry.

[RadulaKisses]

[xoxCelinexox]

[xenatorres]

I love when Henry is listening to this on "Punky Brewster" and Betty enters and turns off the radio right before the last five notes. XD He turns the radio back on, but has missed the end and the DJ says, "Yes, it's worth listening to the whole piece for just those last five notes..."

[keymaster555]

BIOSHOCK.

[ddd1234ify]

@keymaster555 LOVE that part of the game. Probably my favorite part. (Second only to the TWIST in the middle)

[gnguyen411]

When I was a child, fantasia was interesting. But the nutcracker made me fall asleep withing 15 minutes. No joke.

[Hibiscus8302]

They just do not have animation like this anymore! True art! Computer animation just cannot hold a candle to this.

[catii1189]

OMG.. I REMEMBER WATCHING THIS WHEN I WAS LITTLE. I've looked for it everywhere because I forgot the name.. So happy to finally find it!!!

[andynightwing]

@catii1189 Wow! So happy you could find it too! =)

[Snowmoe25]

@catii1189 Same here!

[spartonabca]

ma che fine ha fatto tutta quella magia?

dove stiamo andando a finire?

[dragoncommander92]

disney was so cool, and beautiful, but what happened to that magic?

[pumau6]

[andynightwing]

@pumau6 The Philadelphia Orchestra (Leopold Stokowski as Conductor)

[nargarothfreak666]

Can you change your name to Tsjaikovski?

it is not Tchaikovski

but a very good good song thanks for the upload!

Cheers!

[andynightwing]

@nargarothfreak666 Really? I don't know... I just copied and pasted exactly as it was in the movie credits to make it easier to find.

Maybe Tchaikovsky is that kind of name spelled a little different because of the language you are using.

Anyway... Thanks for your comment! =)

[Molkomuse]

@andynightwing yeah, he seems to be polish or something like that, also in spanish it seems to ve chaikovsky without the T

[justwanttodie]

@nargarothfreak666 The name really is Tchaikovsky... if you really want to know check wikipedia or your schoolbook (if you have books in your music lessons!)

[ElenaMartynova]

@nargarothfreak666 Name of composer Пётр Чайковский, but not Цайковский what you propose to read. ;)

[drebubbles]

@nargarothfreak666 facepalm

[nargarothfreak666]

@drebubbles

No i am telling the truth but if you guys cant take the truth

fine by me but i still think this is a great song!

[drebubbles]

@nargarothfreak666 song? lol MASTERPIECE!

[delphinaforever]

I'm nearly 18, I remember watching this when I was younger, and I still think that nothing will ever beat this in terms of its beauty, creativity, and the way it invites children to get to know classical music.

[sinamonmac]

اول مره بسمعها ؛بس كتير حلوة؛بحبك

[ABdadaSURD]

Tchaikovsky!!!!

[nargarothfreak666]

@ABdadaSURD

it is Tsjaikovski

not Tchaikovsky:P

Cheers!

[kevin080592]

and you thought the music and pop culture of today is good and way better than what it preceed...then THINK again!

vintage would always be timeless!

[maddye69]

@kevin080592 only master pieces are timeless, thats definition for real art. I liked your comment, but not everything "old" has to be better ...

[Molkomuse]

i always loved this one. The beggining at least. When it gets louder i don't like it that much. I never knew it was tchaikovsky

[MPCvideostuff]

3:26 heh heh oh right



[CleansWithRag]

When Fantasia first came out, it was WAY ahead of it's time. People thought it was sacrilegious, despite how well the music and animation fit together (i.e. The Sorcerers Apprentice).

[graciela2554]

EXQUISITO...

GRACIELA.

[eryberrie]

All the kids my age said that this film was boring when it came out. Each to their own, but I thought and still think many years later that it is simply beautiful.

[KentuckyFriedGunman]

This film has unfortunately taught us that some films are too innovative for audiences to handle.

Fantasia is such a classic...

[windstorm1000]

Just when you think nothing could top the fabulous music of "Waltz", along comes Fantasia which adds the icing on the cake--marvelous, magical seasonal visuals that perfectly go with the sumptious music. I love the seed 'puffs' floating down like ballerinas and the fairies stretching/waking up. Disney and his team were geniuses. Tchaivkovsky would have been enchanted.

We sang this song in High School I was the soloist wow brings me back to a very long time ago. Such beautiful Memories. Thank You Love Barbara

[awsmninja]

wow so many memories. i love this part.

[atenean4life]

Our school just had a ballet dance presentation this mornin and had all the nutcraker songs in it. Man i loved it...

[LaAngeldeMusica]

i watched fantasia all the time as a child, and now i'm making a living as a choreographer. This movie taught me to associate music with pictures, which is the basis of dance. I love Fantasia and I am going to pass on this amazing piece of animation on to my children.

[djuro20]
