  • July 26, 2013 Bugs Bunny and the NSO Come to Wolf Trap
    July 26, 2013 Bugs Bunny and the NSO come to Wolf Trap By Roger Catlin For a generation of Americans, the earliest love of classical music came not through shared family symphony experiences or early childhood music appreciation classes, but through mayhem-laced TV cartoons, often involving a bunny in drag. Walt Disney may have taken the high road to classical music interpretation through some early Silly Symphony cartoons and “Fantasia” (which in its first run was a flop). But it was Warner Bros. and particularly the animators behind Bugs Bunny who may have been the most successful in drumming key classical passages into the heads of impressionable audiences when the studio’s theatrical cartoons of the 1940s and ’50s were incessantly replayed on TV in the ’60s. Warner Bros. - Still image from the 1950's Merrie Melodies short, “What's Opera, Doc?” Even today, the most serious gray-haired music lover, sitting in the world’s most august concert halls, may be listening to the timeless refrains of Rossini or Wagner only to have the phrase “Kill the Wabbit!” come to mind. Conductor George Daugherty has embraced this meld of classical knowledge and pop-culture conditioning and celebrates it in his “Bugs Bunny at the Symphony.” Its first tour, in 1990, was such a success that it spawned, as most successes in Hollywood do, a sequel. “Bugs Bunny at the Symphony II” comes to Wolf Trap on Thursday and Friday, with Daugherty conducting the National Symphony Orchestra. In its honor, we pause to hail the greatest uses of classical music by Warner Bros.

EXT. WARNER BROS. STUDIOS - DAY It's 2025, Christmas Day, on the Warner Bros. lot. The lot is empty. Alleys and driveways look abandoned. The only car visible is a small blue Movie City security cart parked between Building 44 and Stage 22. It sits there, parked. Not a person in sight. Suddenly a sprinkle of snow starts falling from the sky, powdering the entire expanse of the visible studio. The sound of two kids arguing becomes increasingly audible, “...I don’t want to go shopping, I want to go to the movies...,” as the cart cantilevers along a sparkling patch of snow. Two small characters, SNOWFLAKE, wearing magic glasses, and a pink spaghetti dress, and KIK, wearing an accelerator beanie with a detachable drone, tear around the corner and park in front of Building 44.

A A mainstay of Saturday morning children’s programming, small snippets of it appear regularly in commercials,TVCrit.com credit sequences, music videos, news and sports, but there have been long stretches when there were no prime-time cartoon shows. After The Flintstones ended its original run in 1966 there wasn’t another successful prime-time show until 23 years later, when The Simpsons debuted. Since 1989 there has been something of a Renaissance in television animation. Numerous prime-time cartoon pro- grams have appeared and at least three cable channels have arisen that fea- ture cartoons—the Cartoon Network, Nickleodeon, and Toon Disney.

  • Episode 810, Story 1: WB Cartoons Tukufu Zuberi
    Episode 810, Story 1: WB Cartoons Tukufu Zuberi: Our first case attempts to animate the hidden history of these cartoon drawings. March 1935: Porky Pig makes his debut in I Haven’t Got a Hat , and quickly becomes the star of Warner Bros’ Looney Tunes series. A parade of groundbreaking characters follow: Daffy Duck, Bugs Bunny, The Roadrunner. By the 1940’s, Porky Pig and his Looney Tunes entourage overthrow the reigning king of cartoon shorts: Walt Disney’s Mickey Mouse. But did an earlier cartoon creature attempt to topple King Mickey from his throne? Bruce Cockerill of San Ramon, California, has made a discovery that may shed light on the scrappy, early days of cartoon animation. Bruce Cockerill: I found these drawings in a salvage yard in Berkeley, California and I have no idea what they are. Tukufu: I’m Tukufu Zuberi, and I’m taking a first peek at Bruce’s curious drawings. Bruce: Here, I’ve got something to show you. Tukufu: Alright, what have you got? Where did you get these from? Bruce: At a salvage yard in Berkley, California. Tukufu: Interesting. I mean this doesn’t look like anything I’ve ever seen. And I watched cartoons when I was a kid. Bruce: Okay. Me too. And I don’t know much about them either. Tukufu: You know who this guy is or this character is? Bruce: No idea. No idea. Well I see Mickey Mouse in one. Tukufu: This is definitely Mickey Mouse. 1 Bruce: And they’re on plastic. Tukufu: So this came with these? Bruce: Right.

  • Looney Tunes
    LOONEY TUNES Warner Bros. Cartoons: “Jumpin’ Jupiter” “Stupor Duck” “Speedy Gonzales” 1 I am certain most people have been exposed as a kid to the delightfully funny Warner Bros. cartoons: Looney Tunes. I remember watching a bunch of these cartoons every Saturday morning at home. Part of the fun was also hearing the excellent original music scores for most of these cartoons. The primary composer of interest to me was of course Carl Stalling whose last cartoon project was “To Itch His Own” in 1958. People talk about Max Steiner “mickey-mousing.” Well, that reference originally stemmed from cartoon music that tends to almost always “hit the mark” or synchronize music effects precisely with the fast-moving action on the screen. Stalling was a master of that. He and Max both are credited in fact for the creation of the “click track” method of aligning music to the running feet on the spool of film. Stalling also had use of the hey-day of the luscious and dynamic Warner Bros. orchestra. Currently there are five volumes of the dvd set, “Looney Tunes: The Golden Collection.” Many of these cartoon gems are provided, especially in Volume 2. The retail price for the first four volumes is normally about $65. As I am now writing in mid- November, you can get it on Amazon for $29 each. Only the recently-released Volume 5 is still at about $46. I researched three cartoon full scores back in the Nineties at USC/Warner Bros Archives. These include “Jumpin’ Jupiter (1955), “Stupor Duck” (1956), and “Speedy Gonzales (1955).
