Subj: [kl] Music at Disneyland
Date: Sat, 24 Dec 2005 22:58:34 -0500

I recently went to Disneyland in California and was mesmerized by the
arrangements for the parades that came out of the P.A. system through
out the park. Sure wished I lived next to the arranger(s) so I could
pick their brains. What great use of unifying themes between tunes and
in the transitions. Now that I am getting older I find myself more and
more interested in the cerebral aspects of writing and arranging than
the physical aspect of performing.

So....A few questions:

1. Who does the arranging for the music for the Disneyland parades?
2. Which orchestra recorded the music for the parades?
3. Is the music for the clarinet quintet available for purchase?
4. Do any of the arrangers do commission work?
