I am participating in a blog post campaign from One2One Network and Walt Disney Records. All opinions are my own. I received a sample for review purposes, but no other compensation, monetary or other, has been received for this review post.
No, I don't have seven dwarfs to follow you along during your day, and do all your boring chores and jobs duties for you, but I do have somethings that will make you SMILE and hum along, and start swaying to the beat, and it IS pretty magical.....
Yup, from the magical vault of Walt Disney Records comes a NEW Disney Classics box set of magical music this month! How magical is this box set? It contains 94 original recordings from Disney and Disney-Pixar movies, television shows and theme parks celebrating over 85 years of Disney musical magic. Yup- all the music YOU loves when YOU went to Disney World/Land as a child, and all the music your kids and grandkids love too! All in one little lovely box, that is perfect for giving, and keeping!
I don't know about your family, but the music is what has truly MADE each and every Disney feature, since the beginning! Whether it was Mickey whistling at the steamboat helm, or Snow White whistling down the forest path, Disney movies have already meant GREAT music!
I can remember playing my Snow White Album (that would be the large vinyl platter of music that predated CD's for you youngsters) over and over and over. Drove my Mother NUTS. I think she still hates "Whistle While You Work" (which can happen when you heat it 64 times, in a ROW, for weeks and weeks...LOL)! I still have that album- it's pretty scratched up, but I can't let go of it- the memories mean too much, and the cover art is still pretty cool! We didn't have a lot of merchandising back then when the movies came out- posters, albums, stuffed toys and lunchboxes were the norm- so it holds many happy memories for me!
This new four volume collection has music that will make both you and the kids sing and hum along!
Check out a superb medley of songs from the first CD- Modern Classics by Alex G and Peter Hollens!

This box set was compiled by Disney Music Group’s resident music historian and Grammy-winning producer, Randy Thornton. Thornton says, “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 – probably the most recognizable and beloved song catalog in the world. Even though the musical styles range from inspiring ballads, novelty songs, folk, rock, to Broadway show-tunes, Disney Music is a genre in and of itself."
As a special bonus for box set purchasers, the box also includes a new medley of Disney hits by YouTube acapella sensations Peter Hollens and Alex G (from the video above). Peter and Alex create fully orchestrated songs using only the sounds of their voices- seriously- can you BELIEVE how great they wound? With well over 100 million views on YouTube alone, their sensational approach has excited audiences all over the world, and it is super easy to see WHY!
I hope you're excited about this new collection, like I am!
