The Live Concert Event Is the Highlight of Disney Music Emporium’s EXPO Activities August 14–16, Which Include Music Product, Album
Signings, and a Pre-Order for The Silly Symphony Collection
BURBANK, CA – June 2, 2015 –
D23 EXPO 2015 will feature the world premiere of
Disney in Concert: A Silly Symphony Celebration—a live concert
performance featuring a 32-piece orchestra celebrating the Silly
Symphony animated short films and their accompanying music, hosted by
film historian Leonard Maltin. Fans will delight in
watching selected Silly Symphony shorts from Disney’s archives while
the music is performed live in synchronization with the picture,
presented using high-quality, newly restored digital film masters. The
music will be performed as it would have been recorded
during those historic days at the Disney Studios on Hyperion Avenue in
the 1920s and ’30s. This very special concert event will showcase the
music of the
Three Little Pigs, The Old Mill and many other classics.
To ensure as many guests are able to see the concert as possible, two
70-minute presentations will take place on Sunday, August 16, one at 11 a.m. and the second at 2 p.m. in Stage 23.

collectible Disney music products, is creating a pop-up store on the
