Symphony Hour

Symphony Hour is a color Mickey Mouse animated short. It was released in 1942.

The Story
Mickey is the conductor of an orchestra composed of members of the gang for the Sylvester Macaroni Symphony House radio show. Everything goes perfectly in rehearsal, but things start to go wrong just before Showtime when Goofy accidentally drops the instruments (and himself) down the elevator shaft. Against all odds, Mickey manages to just barely hold the performance together as the gang tries to play their broken instruments despite the ever-growing lunacy. As the piece ends, Mr. Macaroni is sure his career has been ruined, but is pleased to find out that the audience actually loved the bizarre performance.
