Looney Tunes tribute to Leopold Stokowski most likely introduced millions of kids to pursue musical careers
Amazing !!!!

[@sjohnson1688]

Tom & Jerry for me. Seeing a cartoon cat play the piano made me ask the question "Why can't I?" as a kid lol been playing for 27 years

[@sammikinsderp]

It was Tom n Jerry for me, when they did Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2. But Bugs Bunny did drive me to view this video!

[@MarcoPolo-zc6zo]

My grandfather loved Bugs Bunny because it reminded him of when he studied under Leopold.

[@mikeXto]

Ay aha

[@thegame6141]

[@moonpiespotlight4759]

It seems like everyone in the comments section was brought here because of Bugs Bunny

[@AlexOjideagu2]

LEOPOLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

At least the cartoon can be informative.....

[@lawnmowermanTX]

YEP!! Leopold!! It's Leopold!!! L...L...L...Leopold! *snaps the conductor stick*

[@MoNyOh]

gotta give thanks, since we were children, them and Tom & Jerry for teaching us to appreciate classical music!

[@stephenbyrne2170]

Not me. I'm here because I'm a fan of his work.

[@musicfan6575]

Leopold!!! Thanks Bugs.

[@barb7124]

LEOPOLD!!

[@robint9803]

A cartoon can be informative becoz of bugs bunny a lot of people came to know about Leopold...... Long live chuck Jones.......

[@sadom321]

So where is the scene where the stage collapse?!?!!

[@JPLooney]

they never got to that part, it was cut short!

[@CornsilkSW]

I love the internet. Before it was around, you could only find this sort of thing if you were lucky, or by years of diligence searching inter-library loan catalogs. Thank you for sharing a cultural gem of western classical music with the world.

[@wohololao]

LEOPOLD!

[@angbandsbane]

If bothered by the fact that so many people seem to be here due to Bugs Bunny rather than appreciation for classical music, keep this in mind: it means people are still appreciating classical animation.

[@AllisonakaSakura]

Think of it as a honor. Without bugs bunny new generation would never UNDERSTAND who this guy is. I mean it tell you something when you got people looking him up from cartoon he was mention in

[@stephenbyrne3909]

That thing about appreciating classical music? That's why I'M here.

[@Blastna22]

Well I think not only was the gag in good taste, it was a homage to the man. I for one will honor Lepold's memory and classical music by learning about him!

[@dmac5935]

It can be seen as an education tool, because he mentioned him now Im more educated on him and his history, adding to my previous knowledge base of classical music, already
preestablished Vavaldi, Debussy, ofcourse Beethoven, Mozart. Thus you shouldn't Be bothered by it and Does it really surprise you In this day and age. I myself like classical music and majority of people like myself grew up watching Bugs.

[@PokeDude011]

Better than people going to a classical song because it plays before an Animatronic Bear jump scares you in a video game.

[@DiegoHdez2890]

¡Leopold!

[@elfourier1569]

Leopold!!!!!!

[@tigrisbrizs2440]

Masterpiece!

[@forrestcalkins93]

I'm sure you won't find another conductor like Leopold, his method is not very common as most conductors use batons

[@JohnJApanovitch]

Yeah, he had a style that he was very comfortable with. Having a baton is an optional thing for a conductor, so it’s not mandatory. But this is what made Stokowski stand out.

[@tmnl8037]

Bugs Bunny was a better conductor than him!

[@forgetyouman]

@stopplayingwithmyfat
The conductor does a couple things. They let the ensemble know when to stop and start, and they keep time to keep everyone playing at the same tempo. That's what most of the arm-waving is for. They also communicate dynamics - tell people when to get louder and softer or when one instrument should back down or play out more. Some conductors even use facial expressions to let people know what kind of emotion they should put into the music.

[@iliasstardust9772]

It's Leopold !

I get it. Never heard this song sound so good.
(And I've never seen hands look so much like floppy gloves. He probably has more control of his hand muscles than a ballerina does of her toes.)
Ah, to be back in the school band again.

[@AnimeFanatic5602]

I'd be willing to bet that any orchestra he conducted played better by a good 20-30% simply because they didn't want to disappoint him.

[@diecaste123]

LEOPOLD!!! leopold? LEOPOLD? leopold!!

[@RCamposRafael]

@saabturbografx No, it is because of Bugs Bunny, there is an episode where he conducts an orchestra, and he was dressed like leopold, and everybody in the audience repeated "Leopold"

[@eufelippealves]

this is music

[@adulka1000]

[@selarmajak7887]

why do two people dislike this?? somebody explain PLEASE

[@Milordvega]

Giovanni Jones was one of them

[@George040270]

They hate it because they want to kill the wabbit.

[@RevivalFireOkie]

Yeah its Giovanni Jones, or his offsprings fault.

[@martinb3758]

i can understand neither, after all, it is Leopold!

[@alexanderhan2819]

Lmao

[@user-yq3kj9ub4w]

I wonder if the respect and awe that buggs had gotten from his entrance pretending to be leopo is the same in real life?

[@mattleemattlee123]

We'll never see (or hear) the likes of him again. Lenny Bernstein was exuberant and wonderful, Eugene Ormandy was a genius and musically perfect, but then there was Leopold...

[@honoratamusica]

I'm here because Stokowski was great conductor.

[@frankstrawnation]

And because Bugs Bunny's cartoon.

[@honoratamusica]

Nope, I watched the cartoon after

[@saborboricuapr1]

Same here - looking bugs bunny videos found Leopold.. what a musician!!!!!! thanks for posting.... I had no idea who Leopold was...
