This cartoon creation to Saint-Saens’ Danse Macabre is the best of them all - it remains the perennial favorite of mine. And mind you, I’m 77 years old and waiting to have at least one grandchild from our one and only child who’s now 37 years old! Thank you sooo much for the pleasure.
I haven’t seen this since I was a kid. Thank you for posting this video. When I was a kid, there were so many cartoons that introduced me to classical music. I miss those days.
"Come out, come out, come out from your grave It's time to twirl and dance and play Tonight's the night of Halloween Let's dance around til the morning gleam" -my music teacher Mrs Dix
Zig 'nd zig 'nd zig, Death rhythmically Beats upon a tomb with his heel, Death at midnight plays a dance tune, Zig 'nd zig 'nd zag, upon his violin. Winter's breeze blows, and the night is sombre, Groaning comes from the lime trees; White skeletons pass through the shadows Running and leaping beneath their great shrouds, Zig 'nd zig 'nd zig, each one is jigging, One hears the clack of the bones of the dancers, A lustful couple sit themselves upon the moss As though to taste of ancient sweets. Zig 'nd zig 'nd zag, Death continues Scraping endlessly his shrill instrument. A veil has fallen! The dancer is nude! Her partner presses amorously. The dame, they say, a marquise or baroness And the old casanova a poor cartwright - Horror! And she is wanton As though the lout were a baron! Zig 'nd zig 'nd zig, what a stately dance! What circles of the dead, each offering a hand! Zig 'nd zig 'nd zag, one sees among the band The king capering with the villein! But look! Of a sudden they quit the round, One pushes, one flees, the cock has crowed Oh! A fine night for this poor world! And long live Death and Equality!

Danse Macabre I have loved since I was about 4 years old. I choreographed to it, became a musician because of it ( and a few others). Very important to me. Thank you.
Saint-Saëns' Danse Macabre (Dance of Death) is based on this poem Danse Macabre by Henri Cazalis. Tap, tap, tap-Death rhythmically, Taps a tomb with his heel, Death at midnight plays a gigue, Tap, tap, tap, on his violin. The Winter wind blows, the night is dark, The lime-trees groan aloud; White skeletons flit across the gloom, Running and leaping beneath their huge shrouds Tap, tap, tap, everyone’s astir, You hear the bones of the dancers knock, A lustful couple sits down on the moss, As if to savour past delights. Tap, tap, tap, Death continues, Endlessly scraping his shrill violin A veil has slipped! The dancer’s naked! Her partner clasps her amorously. They say she’s a baroness or marchioness, And the callow gallant a poor cartwright. Good God! And now she’s giving herself, As though the bumpkin were a baron! Tap, tap, tap, what a saraband! Circles of corpses all holding hands! Tap, tap, tap, in the throng you can see King and peasant dancing together! But shh! Suddenly the dance is ended, They jostle and take flight-the cock has crowed… Ah! Nocturnal beauty shines on the poor! And long live death and equality!

Wow, thank you for that. I do not know why, but I associate the poem and the music somewhat to Mozart. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and that 'deal' he or some other people made with ?? to get Mozart to keep writing music.
Music teacher here. I was about to show this to my classes today. Now I'm rethinking my plan. I've never noticed that bit before, but you can bet I have Kindergarteners who will 🤣
This piece is the reason I fell in love with the violin as a kid. My first musical obsession - as soon as I heard it I wanted to learn how to play it. 40 yrs later I'm still playing :) 🎻💀
I agree. However, even though I won a music prize that awarded me free violin lessons (when I was 11), my parents would not let me accept them. No beginner violinist at home for them! Such a pity. Stringed instruments are such wonderful teachers.
The cartoons of my youth (I’m 59) - amusing, and it gave one a bit of appreciation for classical music. I can recall a Bugs Bunny cartoon featuring The Barber of Seville.
This us one if the most ab fab animated dance musicals EVER!!! Danse Macabre is such a fun n frolicking video that brings back MAJOR memories of watching this in the 1960's when I was a uoung child n I have loved it ever since!!! Totally awesome Skeleton Dance 🩰!!!! Thanks for the walk down memory lane.
Mickey’s House of Villains when Mickey and Minnie had their short Halloween segment as Hansel and Gretel. They were forced to escape the witch and the house made of candy.
I have always loved this song since I was a small child and our music teacher introduced it to us in class. I recall there was a cartoon we watched but I thought it was black and white. Could it have been this?
Are you sure it was this specific song? There is Disney’s Silly Symphony “The Skeleton Dance” that has a different song, but is somewhat similar and in black and white

It would be interesting to watch an orchestra perform this dressed as skeletons while a troupe of dancers made up to look like 18th century zombies did a ball room routine to this music
These old cartoons taught me an appreciation of classical music before I knew anything about classical music. 🙏
This wasn't random. You searched for this.
No I did not actually.
I just saw it on the recommended side
Sooooo yeah
Yes .-.
Yes, I did. You are correct.
Actually, I was forced to come here. Schoolwork and all-
It was an alternative search tbh.

Is your son married?
Splendid!
The cartoon is Skeleton Frolic (1937). It was made with another soundtrack.

Leave your kid alone you're not getting grandchildren
One of the nicest pieces of French music ever composed and a wonderful animated cartoon

Groaning comes from the lime trees;
White skeletons pass through the shadows

A lustful couple sit themselves upon the moss
As though to taste of ancient sweets.
Zig 'nd zig 'nd zag, Death continues
Scraping endlessly his shrill instrument.
A veil has fallen! The dancer is nude!
Her partner presses amorously.
The dame, they say, a marquise or baroness
And the old casanova a poor cartwright -
Horror! And she is wanton
As though the lout were a baron!
Zig 'nd zig 'nd zig, what a stately dance!
What circles of the dead, each offering a hand!
Zig 'nd zig 'nd zag, one sees among the band
The king capering with the villein!
But look! Of a sudden they quit the round,
One pushes, one flees, the cock has crowed
Oh! A fine night for this poor world!
And long live Death and Equality!

@@edithchetelat8324 Zig et zig et zig, la mort en cadence
Frappant une tombe avec son talon,
La mort à minuit joue un air de danse,
Zig et zig et zag, sur son violon.
Le vent d'hiver souffle, et la nuit est sombre,
Des gémissements sortent des tilleuls;
Les squelettes blancs vont à travers l'ombre
Courant et sautant sous leurs grands linceuls,
Zig et zig et zig, chacun se trémousse,
On entend claquer les os des danseurs,
Un couple lascif s'asseoit sur la mousse
Comme pour goûter d'anciennes douceurs.
Zig et zig et zag, la mort continue
De racler sans fin son aigre instrument.
Un voile est tombé! La danseuse est nue!
Son danseur la serre amoureusement.
La dame est, dit-on, marquise ou baronne.
Et le vert galant un pauvre charron -
Horreur! Et voilà qu'elle s'abandonne
Comme si le rustre était un baron!
Zig et zig et zig, quelle sarabande!
Quels cercles de morts se donnant la main!
Zig et zig et zag, on voit dans la bande
Le roi gambader auprès du vilain!
Mais psit! tout à coup on quitte la ronde,
On se pousse, on fuit, le coq a chanté
Oh! La belle nuit pour le pauvre monde!
Et vive la mort et l'égalité!

I was questioning my own mental sanity listening this with my eyes closed... power of mind
Spooky, like "in the hall of the Mountain King", fantastic!😮❤
I swear to good this was in a movie or something but I have no clue which one
xxcolby brockxx I think it had to do with Mickey Mouse
Mickey’s House of Villains when Mickey and Minnie had their short Halloween segment as Hansel and Gretel. They were forced to escape the witch and the house made of candy.
It was in the movie "Tombstone" during the stage performance of Faust.
@@ant32140 omg my nightmare has risen! I was so scared of that scene haha
Also in a Russian cartoon called Незнайка (the proper noun version of "idk," pronounced Neznaika)
Alright, cough up. Who else is here from having to listen to this in music?
Me :(
Me. I’ve been searching for this song for years because I loved it in music class
me
me but I still find old cartoons terrifyinfa
me lmao

There are several different animations for this song, check em all out !
