Part 1 is to the Johann Strauss waltz music called Tales of Vienna Woods. Look and listen for how the animators made the characters move in time to the music and how they made the story fit the "feel" of the music. Note that the music is in 3/4 time - Can you hear the beat go 1,2,3; 1,2,3. The characters are Elmer Fudd (And as we hear the whythmic stwains of the haunting wefwain, wisten to the wippwing whythm of the woodwinds, as it wolls awound and awound, and it comes out here..." Porky Pig and Bugs Bunny.
In Part 2, the music is the Blue Danube - Probably Strauss's most famous waltz - and possibly the most famous waltz music of all time. A mother swan is gliding across the water with her cygnets - and a duck . . . See if you can follow the story.
