Today I had the pleasure of a totally lazy Sunday. I spent it with my friend Amanda and her two little ones, Kaycee and Connor- they are huge fans of Disney, as am I and I thought it would be a big hit to bring over some of my DVDs (yes! I own Disney movies... questionable huh?) The chosen one for this afternoon was Sleeping Beauty.
Even as a kid, I always noticed the music in the movies I would watch and especially loved the music from this movie (I should not wonder why Tchaikovsky is one of my favorite composers today!) I explained to my friends that the music in the movie comprised of bits and pieces from the Tchaikovsky ballet, they thought this was really cool!
This point in the movie always scared me the most- it is creepy! It is also totally enhanced by the music, which features a little bit of oboe. Now, I don't usually make it a point to get too in depth with my career and the details of the oboe life with friends (unless they are an oboe-er too!) However, this was a good opportunity to say; "Hey! Hear that? THAT is the instrument I play... yea the creepy sounding one!"
