The Demonic Connection
Update RequiredTo play audio, update browser or
Flash plugin.
A scene from the "A Night on Bald Mountain" sequence from Walt Disney's animated classic, Fantasia.
From ghoulies and ghosties and long-leggedy beasties
And things that go bump in the night, Good Lord, deliver us!
So goes the old Scottish prayer--and the next hour, with demonic music by Mussorgsky, Saint-Saens, Britten, Bernstein, and more.
