The Sorcerer's Apprentice

Available for over a year

Made famous by Mickey Mouse and Disney's Fantasia, The Sorcerer's Apprentice was composed in 1897. The music makes the story vividly real, each instrument playing a distinct role; you can hear the marching brooms in the bassoon, the magic spells brought to life by the trumpets and flowing water in the strings. Composer: Paul Dukas Performers: BBC Symphony Orchestra Conductor: Sakari Oramo Recording date: 09 May 2014 Date of broadcast: 09 May 2014
