The Vacation Kingdom of the World: Little-Known Epcot Soundtracks (More Mouse) by Tom Richards | Soundtrack | Scoop.it

Composer Steve Skorija was commissioned to write an original symphonette to commemorate the "100 Years of Magic" celebration held at the Walt Disney World Resort in 2001. According to the liner notes from the Walt Disney Records' 2001 release Magic in the Streets: Parade Memories, this symphonette was to contain four movements "representing the essence of each Walt Disney World park: Disney's Magic Kingdom (Fantasy), Epcot (Discovery), Disney's Animal Kingdom (Adventure), and Disney/MGM Studios (Show-Biz)." In an interview at the time, Mr. Skorija was quoted as saying that he viewed all of Walt Disney World as "one giant, larger than life music box."
