Disney Classics Box Set Review : Pre Order Yours Now ~ Available 11-12-2013 !

For as long as I can remember, Disney has been apart of my life through toys, clothing, books, movies and of course, the unforgettable music that you never seem to forget. Can you recall your favorite Disney movie? Chances are, you know every word to every song from the film! I’m not afraid to admit that I know every Princess movie by heart…and belt out every song like the next Julia Andrews on Broadway. 😀 You can ask my girls, if you don’t believe me! From Snow White, Ariel, Cinderella, Rapunzel, and even Tiana…yes, I am playing dress up, and singing these songs (with my girls) just about everyday. Which is why I am so excited to share the news about the release of Walt Disney Record’s Disney Classics Box Set.

From The Studio’s earliest days, music has always been an integral part of the Disney creative process. But when ‘Who’s Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf’ debuted in 1933, it began a musical legacy that remains unmatched to this day. Disney Classics Box Set is a music collection that represents this legacy. The set is divided among 4 separate CD’s which include:

Timeless Classics
Collected here are some of the most iconic melodies from Disney’s golden era. From ‘When You Wish Upon a Star’ to ‘A Spoonful of Sugar’ and ‘Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah’ to ‘The Whistle Stop,’ these Timeless Classics are part of a musical heritage inextricably woven into our human culture heirlooms passed down through the generations.

Modern Classics
This compilation begins with 1989’s The Little Mermaid, which not only ignited the renaissance of Disney Animation and storytelling, but a rebirth of Disney Music as well. Favorites from ‘Under the Sea,’ ‘Beauty and the Beast’ and ‘A Whole New World,’ these Modern Classics continue to shape the company’s musical history and heritage.

Television Classics
Spanning from the 1950s to present day, this album represents quite an eclectic compilation of themes. At the very least, it’s an interesting musical graph of changing tastes and social evolution over the last 60+ years. Everything from ‘The Ballad of Davy Crockett,’ to ‘Get’cha Head in the Game’ from High School Musical, is represented on this album, but probably the most beloved of these Television Classics however, has to be the ‘Mickey Mouse Club Alma Mater.’

Theme Park Classics
Music plays a vital role in the Parks as well; whether it be cleverly establishing an attraction’s story or the sheer brilliance of underscoring the banks and turns of a thrilling roller coaster. Collected here are not only those Theme Park Classics we know and love today, but others we fondly remember from days gone by.

So, when can you expect to find these at a store near you? Hold on to your seats…you can find this wonderful treasure on Tuesday, November 12th, 2013. At that time, the box set will be available for purchase wherever music is sold. The suggested list price for the box set is $49.98 (please note that prices may vary depending on retailer). Check out this awesome video via YouTube ~ the all-new “Disney Classics Medley” (featuring songs from “The Lion King,” “Aladdin,” “Pocahontas,” “The Little Mermaid” and “Beauty and the Beast”) performed by YouTube a capella sensations Alex G and Peter Hollens.
