Review

"From the film shorts of the 1930s to the recent phenomenon High School Musical, songs written for Disney productions over the decades have become an enduring part of popular culture. The Disney Song Encyclopedia discusses hundreds of famous and not-so-famous songs from Disney films, television programs, Broadway shows, and theme parks from the 1930s to the present." "In this comprehensive reference, authors Thomas S. Hischak and Mark A. Robinson review more than 900 songs in alphabetical order. Songwriters and original singers are identified, as well as the source of the song and other venues in which it has been used over the years. Notable recordings of the song are also provided, but most important are discussions of what makes each song memorable. This volume also contains a glossary of song terms, a songwriter's directory, a guide to recordings and DVDs of Disney productions, and a list of Academy Award nominees and winners."--BOOK JACKET
