The Band Concert | comment |
The first color Mickey Mouse cartoon, and still one of his most popular of the Classic Disney Shorts, "The Band Concert" is a 1935 cartoon in which Mickey attempts to conduct Gioachino Rossini's "William Tell Overture" at an outdoor picnic. But he is frequently interrupted by Donald Duck, who keeps distracting the band into playing "Turkey in the Straw" with his infinite arsenal of flutes. Hilarity Ensues. | |

Also Mickey himself. It can be a bit jarring for a viewer used to the mild mannered Only Sane Man character he later became to see him outright lose his temper and break Donald's fifes. | |

Mostly with Donald's long-billed appearance. Donald also seems to be almost a toned-down Screwball Squirrel archetype here, and is much shorter than Mickey. | |

Walking Out on the Show: Subverted. The audience leaves not because they hate the show, but because they're wisely fleeing from an approaching tornado. When Mickey finishes, the only one left applauding is Donald. | |

Squirrels in My Pants: A scoop of ice cream falls down the back of Mickey's coat, and his wiggling leads the band to segue into "The Streets of Cairo". Mickey swatting at a bee during a quiet oboe solo causes the entire band to suddenly play with extremely loud and staccato notes. | |

Cartoon Conductor: Several variations. Mickey shaking out a scoop of ice-cream down his shirt causes the band to break into "The Streets of Cairo". Then when he swats at a bee during a slow section, the band plays faster. Finally, as they are swirling inside a tornado, Mickey motions the band to stop, and the tornado itself stops. | |
