What's so good about Disney music?
1, Disney music generally uses creative symphony soundtrack. For example, The Old Mill, the representative work of Disney's early animation music (1937).

Its creative symphonies are perfectly combined with pictures, and without any language description, it successfully shapes the scene of an abandoned old mill on a stormy night.

In contemporary times, the Disney symphony has risen to a more complicated height.

Take Frozen 20 14 as an example. In just a few minutes, its beautiful music has changed many beats, including 4/4, 6/4 and 2/4 beats, and changed many modes, including F, E-flat, E, G minor and F minor. At the same time, the changeable melody also requires each symphony orchestra member to have a superb performance level.

2. The globalization trend of Disney.

On the other hand, the popularity of Disney animation is not only due to their promotion and publicity, but also closely related to the theme and music under the background of globalization. Disney animation has applied the cultural characteristics of other countries to animation many times. For example, Dumbo (194 1) is adapted from European fairy tales. Aladdin (1992), The Lion King (1994) and Mulan (1998/2004) also showed the culture and music of various regions.

Similarly, films from Inca culture, such as The Emperor's New Clothes (2000), Inuit Brother Bear, Alaska (2003), have brought different cultural experiences to audiences all over the world. In addition, Disney composers can cooperate with more famous musicians from other countries to continuously improve the quality of Disney music and strive to reach a new height-"global harmony". 、

3. Disney's successful animation is largely adapted from classic fairy tales: Beauty and the Beast, Peter Pan, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Pinocchio and so on. Even Mulan, Mount Tai and Hercules, all of which are actually due to myths or legends all over the world.

Disney is very good at giving these classic stories new vitality.

Disney has been adhering to and adhering to the mainstream values of American society for a long time, such as dream pursuit, family, prince and princess, adventure friendship and so on, and these old classics have taken on a new look. Even Disney's own animated characters, such as Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck, Simba the Lion King, Star Baby, etc., are essentially related to the above-mentioned bridge.

5. Combine the animated image with its commercial operation.

Almost every successful animated character will be accompanied by the further operation of a series of theme parks, peripheral products and attached sequels, so they keep pace with the times based on the consideration of commercial value when choosing the animated protagonist.
