Walt Disney's dream of creating a "concert film" with a perpetually changing musical repertoire is at last realized with the debut of the animated extravaganza "Fantasia/2000." The film introduces seven spectacular new animated sequences set to the music of the masters and spotlights the return of "The Sorcerer's Apprentice," a milestone piece of animation that was the genesis of the 1940 feature. Created over a nine-year period and utilizing the talents of a new generation of top animation talents, "Fantasia/2000" takes viewers on a journey into the imagination using incredible animated imagery, exquisite classical music, and state-of-the-art technology. The project was initiated and spearheaded by Roy Edward Disney, vice chairman of The Walt Disney Company and head of animation. He also served as executive producer for the project. "Fantasia/2000" arrives in time for the start of a new century and offers a series of stories and images emphasizing hope, optimism, and new beginnings.
