Transcript
[Disney Sing-A-Long Songs Theme]

Professor Owl: Today we're going to have fun with music.

Student: Oh boy!

Professor Owl: Music's lot of fun. The best place to start is at the very beginning. Follow my musical friend Maria and the Von Trapp Children as well as Mickey the bouncing ball.

[Do-Re-Mi (The Sound Of Music) Part 1]

Professor Owl: Do-Re-Mi-Fa-So-La-Ti-Do are the eight basic music notes that made up a scale. Combing notes makes a cord. Play the cords in quick succession and you got an arpeggio.

[Scales and Arpeggios: (The Aristocats)]

[Do-Re-Mi (The Sound Of Music) Part 2]

Professor Owl: A song can chase the blues away. Just like Uncle Remus on that Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah day!

[Zip-A-Dee-Do-Dah (Song of the South) (cuts right after the second verse)]

Professor Owl: Now for a lesson in popular musical styles. Popular music began years and years ago, before you were born.

[Strolling Through the Park (The Nifty Nineties)]

Professor Owl: Back then, people would head on to the theater to hear the latest hit tunes.

[After song ends]

Professor Owl: Music wouldn't be complete without instruments and if you want to perform in front of an audience, you need a microphone. Back in the 1930s, people listen to the radio. One of the most important musical styles at the time is called cooning.

[Boo Boo Boo (A Symposium on Popular Songs)]

[Birds Chirping]

[Wind whistling]

Professor Owl: Music is everywhere as we know it. The hills will come alive with a Sound of Music.

[The Sound Of Music]

Professor Owl: Next, let's sing about a cat.

Bertie: An alley cat?

Class: O'Malley!

Professor Owl: RIGHT! I can hear him approaching our school.

[Thomas O'Malley Cat (The Aristocats)]

Professor Owl: We sometimes introduce each school day with a song. An organization may introduce themselves with their song. Like The Rescue Aid Society.

[Rescue Aid Society (The Rescuers)]

Professor Owl: Songs can really lead into a romantic stroll. Just like Robin Hood and Maid Marian.

[Love (Robin Hood)]

Marian: Oh, Robin. What a beautiful night. I wish it would never end.

[The Lonely Goatherd starts playing]

Professor Owl: I have arranged the Von Trapp Family to entertain Robin and Marian into a puppet show.

[The Lonely Goatherd (The Sound of Music)]

Professor Owl: Now then, we sometimes sing a song whenether we go to bed or you haven't seen your mother in a long time. This is often called a lullaby.

Bertie: A lullaby?

Professor Owl: Right. Here's one example of how Dumbo saw his mother after she was locked up.

[Baby Mine (Dumbo)]

Professor Owl: I say we have one last chance to sing with the Von Trapp Family before our show ends.
