Below is the official description for Fantasia in Concert:

Fantasia in Concert, featuring highlights from two of Disney’s most extraordinary and groundbreaking animated feature films, Fantasia (1940) and its sequel, Fantasia 2000, is not to be missed.

Scenes from each of the two iconic films will be projected in high definition on a large screen above the orchestra as they perform classical selections including Dukas’ Sorcerer’s Apprentice, Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony, Stravinsky’s FirebirdSuite and Saint-Saëns’s Carnival of the Animals.  Blending animated imagery with classical music, the concert will ignite the imaginations of a new generation. Scored to some of the world’s most memorable classical compositions, Fantasiahas provided four generations of children with their first introduction to the glorious sounds of an orchestra’s strings, woodwinds, brass, and percussion.

Program includes selections from:
BEETHOVEN: Symphony No. 5
RESPIGHI: Pines of Rome
DUKAS: The Sorcerer’s Apprentice
STRAVINSKY: Firebird Suite
SAINT-SAËNS: Carnival of the Animals
