"it's a small world" 1964-65 World's Fair complete Instrumental soundtrack

Описание: Happy birthday to the original it’s a small world and it’s home, 1964-65 New York World’s Fair! This is a new version of a video from 2 years ago, with every single instrumental audio track from the original version of "it's a small world". The other version features vocals, but this is just the instrumental tracks, with no vocals. It also features the original area music at the beginning, which I had not yet found when I made my other complete soundtrack. The pictures are the same so I could have this in time for the 60th. On April 22, 1964, after years of planning, this World’s Fair opened its gates with many revolutionary exhibits designed to promote peace through understanding, including 4 from Walt Disney. Alongside other massive achievements in audio animatronic storytelling, GE Carousel of Progress, Illinois Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln, & Ford's Magic Skyway, was a boat ride unlike any other. Of course that was the Unicef & Pepsi Cola pavilion at Fair, Walt Disney’s “it’s a small world”. A delightful musical cruise saluting the world's children, promoting peace through understanding by showing how, despite some differences, there’s too much that we share for there to be any reason for wars and other major conflicts. This masterpiece in themed entertainment is my personal favorite ride anywhere. It's still the most amazing thing ever that the whole thing was actually conceived & built in less than a year. Disney was already well into developing the other 3 pavilions when they were asked if they could build another pavilion, a boat ride saluting children across the world. Walt was determined to build this ride, so his favorite songwriters Richard & Robert Sherman wrote the song, and the many different variants heard here and in the original ride were composed shortly after by Bobby Hammack. The visuals were largely made by Mary Blair, as well as Marc and Alice Davis, Rolly Crump, Blaine Gibson, and other 60’s Imagineers. In the original version, the building was the one relatively unremarkable portion, with title and some other signage in big lettering, surrounding loading area, & not much else besides the still nice mid century modern architecture. The one amazing part of the exterior was the Tower of the Four Winds in front. This kinetic sculpture was designed by Rolly Crump, though he didn’t like the final product because it didn’t move as fast as it did in the model. However, it was still very detailed and despite not being brought from Fair to Disneyland, was an inspiration behind the even more amazing & detailed facade at Disneyland since it reopened there in 1966. The one other downside to the 1964 version was that the South Pacific was not featured (probably because of limited development time), as well as the North Pole, Canada, Welcome/Goodbye, and a few other scenes added when it reopened in 1966. Despite those parts not being featured, the 1964 version was still a masterpiece, as the Blair style is evident everywhere you turn in this ride. Europe, Asia, Africa, and South & Central America are all pretty similar, but not identical to how they've always been at Disneyland (several changes in each, during & after 1966), including pretty much all of the same audio. Many countries, mainly in Europe and Latin America, were arranged differently than the subsequent DL version, but there were only a few very small changes to this audio in 1966, with more afterward but largely restored in 2003 and heard today. Many of the same visuals as 1966 are also present, but some regions are also quite different. The Finale was also pretty similar to today, except that many children there were also arranged differently than DL, the walls were a different color, and a few props were removed/replaced when moving to DL. The audio is also the same audio that’s been used at Disneyland for the first decade and since 2003. I hope you enjoy this soundtrack!
