PHILHARMONIA FANTASTIQUE cover image
Philharmonia Fantastique is a cool animation mixed with music and real instruments to make a fabulous video.

The storyline follows an orchestra with members that have to overcome their differences to play together.

There really isn't much of a plot or character development. There are some amazing shots of the instruments and some very cool animation. One part that I really like is when the dog runs through the trumpet and the path changes as the valves are pushed. The music progresses and gets stronger as the video progresses. I enjoyed seeing the instruments in both real life and animation.

The message of the video is that we have unity from diversity.

I give Philharmonia Fantastique 4.5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 5 to 18, plus adults. It is a fun musical production. By Avalon N. KIDS FIRST!

Guided by a magical Sprite, we see violin strings vibrate, brass valves slice air, and drum heads resonate. Imaginatively blending traditional and modern animation styles, it is a kinetic and cutting edge guide to the orchestra. By the film's end, the orchestra must overcomes its tribal differences to demonstrate "unity from diversity" in a spectacular finale. The work received support from the Sakurako Foundation and the John & Marcia Goldman Foundation.
