Second viewing; the first one was between 1983 and 1986.
Animation shorts each of which illustrates a musical piece, attempting to translate the music into images. Between the animation segments there is a live-action narrative which comically depicts the musical performance and cartoon drawing processes.
Fairly successful endeavor which follows on the footsteps of Fantasia, only in a more comical style. I suppose the most remarkable segment is the one which matches Ravel's Bolero to the evolution of species; it attains genuine surrealism. I didn't care much for the live-action bits though.
