Disney's Fantasia Live in Concert

I grew up on this film and never in my life have I witnessed something so magical. Being in my twenties, you'd think the magic was all gone but on Sunday night, I felt as though I was dancing along with the characters. The Czech National Symphony Orchestra brought to life every drawing, every illustration and every color Walt Disney so carefully crafted. If you've ever wanted to experience beauty in the form musical articulation and visual artistry, then Disney's Fantasia is the absolute best way to experience just that. The event staff also gets my thumbs up as they were very helpful from the time we arrive to when we left. I was very pleased with the entire experience and it was definitely worth every penny!

Took my niece (18 yrs) and we loved it. Such an amazing job by the or orchestra and director to keep them on time. Terrific!!!

We had great seats but were sitting on covered ice! The music and fantasia were great but we were so cold and the accoustics weren't that great for this type of music.

While the orchestra was extremely talented the advertisements and information on this performance was misleading. Before arriving the general idea was that the original film would play silently while the orchestra played through. However after receiving programs it made it clear they would only be doing 'selections from' both films. This was disappointing; especially in how they chose not to do Le Sacre de Printemps or Night on Bald Mountain. Their talent shined through however and it was not an unpleasant evening.

I'm so glad I splurged to buy tickets to this event for my whole family. This was a special treat for us and we were amazed by the performance. We have watched Fantasia many times, but to hear the symphony play the music in real life gave the experience a new twist. We heard elements in the music that we never noticed watching it at home. My 4 & 11 year old loved it! The video helped keep the 4 year old engaged and enhanced the music. It has to be hard to synchronize music to video and they did it flawlessly.

Too much Fantasia 2000. No Night on Bald Mountain.

Wonderful performance; enjoyed every minute. Don't miss

The orchrestra's timing with the animation was amazing. The selections from. Both the 1940 and 2000.movies was good. The show left me wanting more

Great symphony orchestra with classic Fantasia animation.

Was hoping Mickey Mouse would come out but he didn't , my son wanted to leave early

We love Fantasia and this just brought everything together. We brought out two boys ages 8 and 14 with two friends each about the same age and we all enjoyed this. The orchestra was just fantastic. The live orchestra with the animation was incredibly moving, just brings another layer of depth to the music and the animation. I would highly recommend this to anyone interested in introducing live orchestra music to anyone of any age.

This was a treat to watch and listen to Czech National symphony Orchestra perfectly perform classical pieces in sync with scenes from Disney's Fantasia. It was an honor to be in audience.

Overall tone and volume of the pieces were exquisite. It blended beautifully and captivated you despite the movie being played at the same time. Highly recommended

I took my son to NJPAC to see this one night, and although it was past his bedtime, and he was yawning a bit, he forced himself to stay awake to see the orchestra play and to watch the movie. Beautiful imagery and perfect acoustics. He especially loved the dance between the hippos and alligators, mother nature vs. the volcano, and of course the Sorcerer's Apprentice. I only wish it was on a Saturday and began earlier in the day.

Awesome show from start to finish. Classy, dynamic, engaging, fun and impressive.

The orchestra was amazing, perfectly in sync with the cartoon.

Disney FANTASIA and FANTASIA 2000 are my favorite Disney movies. The experience of watching some of the best parts of those movies with a real orchestra was amazing. The orchestra had a real challenge to play according to the tempo of the original recordings so that it would match with the screenings, and the result was flawless.

Props to my man, Walt. And props to the AMAZING event which left me smiling for the rest of the day. It's one thing to watch this movie, but to see it, and hear it. It's pretty spectacular. You sometimes forget that EVERY sound is coming from the artists on stage. Surreal.

Great seats. Interactive Experience between the conductor, the audience, the orchestra and the film.

I attended the Fantasia film with live orchestra last Sunday at the Valley Performing Arts Center, and it was just superb! The event was sold out with many late arriving guests, yet the very professional ushers were able to seat all patrons quickly and professionally. The film was beautifully displayed on a large screen over the stage. The CSUN orchestra was amazing in a top notch performance and always in sinc with the film-not easy! The enthusiastic crowd showed such appreciation with multiple standing ovations. Bravo CSUN Performing Arts Center! I'm proud to have this excellent venue on campus!
