Bumble Bee

Bumble Bee from Melody Time: Bumble Boogie

Melody Time
A surrealistic nightmare for a solitary, tiny, aghast, fast and desparate bumblebee actually known as Bumble (to a boogie-woogie version of Flight of the Bumblebee) trying to escape the visual display and imminent harmony of a musical frenzy. He is being attacked by flowers and butterflies made of piano keys, flowers made of trumpets (plus fireworks from repeated animation), snakes made of piano keys, the piano hammers hitting the "strings" of the sheet music, running piano keys diving on water and falling piano keys. Bumble has put all of the piano keys back together where it is and the piano is restored at the end of the segment.

Trivia
The music for this animated segment is courtesy of Freddy Martin and His Orchestra (with Jack Fina playing the piano) and is a swing-jazz variation of Rimsky-Korsakov's Flight of the Bumblebee, which was one of the many pieces considered for inclusion in Fantasia.

Notes & Production
According to the narrator, the work is a "musical nightmare" that allows the viewer to view Bumble in a surreal musical world. This had joined another surreal sequence from All the Cats Join In to Make Mine Music and Toccata and Fugue in D Minor from Disney's 1940 animated feature-film Fantasia.
