Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the first part of the Disney Parks Musical Extravaganza! Starting today, tune in every Friday for the next 2 weeks you will be able to read, right here on WDW Twourists, posts all about the music that you can hear on the Disney Parks. But before we even talk about the music, I'll go ahead and start some "instructions" for enjoyment of the posts. We'll start telling you what the posts will be about, then introduce you to the categories the music of the parks divide into. Know what? In the end of all posts, you will get a Disney Parks tune that you can download and listen anywhere you want- isn't that a great idea? I planned it that way, I really did.
POST NUMBER ONE: The boarding instructions for our ride through the Disney Parks music history. Well, its the post that youre reading right now. In this post I'll tell you all about the categories, and how the other posts will work.
POST NUMBER TWO: EPCOT. The second park on the Walt Disney World resort, he can say thanks to the music for his fame. Why? You'll see, and you'll also get a Disney tune!
POST NUMBER THREE: The magic of music. Sure, it sounds strange, but we will answer how can a music bring back a guest to the parks.
Get ready everyone! Head back, face forward, and hang on, we are just starting our extravaganza!
Disney Parks Music Categories
BGM or BACKGROUND MUSIC: Do you know that music that plays when you're walking right next to Splash Mountain, Space Mountain, It's a Small World and Pirates of the Caribbean? Well, they are the background music- generally they keep looping and looping and sometimes they set the theme for the attraction that you're about. Here's some trivia: Some of the background music loops of nothing but sound effects- example? Pirates of the Caribbean (pre-2006).
THEME SONG: Come on, this is obvious, I'll give some examples: It's a world of laughter, it's a world of tears-you probably got it. Theme songs are the songs that belong to a certain attraction and it's either used in the finale (Splash Mountain), the whole ride (Carousel of Progress) and in the beginning (Original Journey into Imagination).
AUDIO LOOP: Quick and short- this kind of music keeps repeating itself over and over. Want an example, again? It's a Small World. It is an audio loop AND a theme song, but it just keeps repeating, repeating, repeating, repeating, repeating...
Liked our short tour? We hope you did. Tune in next Friday to more Disney Parks Musical Extravaganza. Do I forget something? Oh! Here's your Disney tune- it's the Now is the Time theme song from the 1974 version of the Carousel of Progress. Want more? Head over to Mousebits.com (registration required), and tell them that Strat sent ya! Thanks for them for allowing me to use their tunes.
Have a great day, and see ya- real soon!
