Layne said at the end he had at least 4 songs mashed together. There's some seriously complex beatboxing in this - plus of course the story they had to tell without words! Grundles are thoroughly mischievous creatures! It is fun, but it's complex to do - and Layne obviously have been itching to do something classical again. We thank him for it! 🌹🕊

And the low bass was Layne when Cesar was stealing voices. This was a hoot and a half! Layne says there will someday be a third piece with the Grundels, but it will be awhile.

When I was in middle school, I had an elderly music teacher who would spin classical records for 30 minutes each week, followed by 20 minutes of commentary on the songs, which was so boring to my 14-year-old self that I was constantly fighting sleep. Now, 40 years later, I thank to her. Because I know all the titles, even though I have never studied music professionally or been to a classical concert.😂

The music is all listed in the credits. This is a follow up to last year's In The Hall of the Mountain King. Where next? Layne told The Charismatic Voice in an interview that he was playing with something like 140 tracks in arranaging this. Yes Cesar apparently stole Geoff's and Rachel's voices. But of course it was just magical. They often use coloured contacts for the more theatrical pieces.

@@bjspeck4337 Fantasia is my favorite as well. When my son was four it came out in the theaters again. I prepped him for the movie explaining that like ballet (because I had taken him to the nutcracker ) there were no words but there was still a story. So we went to the theater and this lady in front of us had no idea what was going on. She kept yelling “something is wrong with the soundtrack - there’s no dialogue“. Finally my four year old leaned forward said “Lady there are no words. Chill” I didn’t know whether to be embarrassed or applaud him. (She got up and went to the lobby, presumably to complain, but she never came back so maybe she got a refund.)💁🏼♀️
