"One of the most major things, if not THE most major thing, about a Warner Brothers cartoon is the absolute symphonic of the orchestra," notes LT vocalist Stan Freberg. "Even at Disney, they didn't do this," adds Freberg, who gives a history of how the WB studio orchestra came to be used for cartoons.
The man in charge of the music was Carl Stalling, who is credited with about 500 musical scores! Other contributors to this feature short give examples of how orchestral instruments were used as sound effects on these WB cartoons, something I took for granted, frankly. I guess I'll never "hear" a cartoon again so carelessly. This was a "Behind The Tunes" feature that was on the Looney Tunes Golden Collection Volume One DVD.
