Customer Review: Disney Greats: for Clarinet Instrumental Play-Along Pack (Disney Greats)
My daughter loves using this book to practice her clarinet. I would recommend this to anyone.
Customer Review: Okay but not great.
1) The CD tracks all play the melody line in a bell tone; no tracks with just the accompaniment. (Aha! Just figured out the melody is on the right stereo track, accompaniment on the left. If you can adjust your stereo settings you can get rid of the melody track.) 2) The accompaniment sounds synthesized.

Customer Review: Great Insight into Walt and the Company
I've read many books about Walt Disney. What I loved about this one is that the stories come from the people Walt worked with every day. Some of them even go so far back as Kansas City. Some of the interviews go deeper into the production of many of the films, especially the early ones.
Customer Review: A must for enthusiasts and historians!
Didier Ghez runs two very important sites in the Disney online community: Disney History and the Ultimate Disney Books Network. Didier has been researching Disney animation since his teens and co-authored Disneyland Paris: From Sketch to Realitywith Alain Littaye. The Walt's People seriesis five volumes with a sixth one on the way. Didier is the editor of the series and has put together some amazing interviews with Disney artists. In some cases, the interviewer is as well-known as the interviewee! The compilation of interviews that Didier has collected makes this volume so very important to anyone researching Disney. The interviews are not just with animators, but artists that worked with Walt on Disneyland and went on to work on the Walt Disney World project. The stories, recollections and anecdotes are priceless and proffer a view of Walt that you can only get from talking to the people that worked directly with him. The interviewees include: * Rudolf Ising * David Hand * Bill Tytla * Ken Anderson * Jack Hannah * John Hench (two interviews) * Marc Davis (two interviews) * Milt Kahl * Harper Goff * Joyce Carlson The interviewers are equally impressive: J.B. Kaufman, Michael Barrier, George Sherman, Paul F. Andersen, Jim Korkis, Alain Littay, Didier Ghez, John Province, Michael Lyons and Robin Allan. In the forward, Didier puts forth some important thoughts about the interviews. ...it is important to always keep in mind that no statement from any interview should ever be considered as the absolute truth, as the interviewee might have misremembered the facts, may have seen only part of the project described, or may have his own personal reasons for representing reality in a certain way. Hence the further importance of the various perspectives provided throughout this series. Didier's work is going to play an important role in the future of research into the Disney Company. Many of the artists were involved in classic Disney animation at a time when credit wasn't clearly given or assigned. It is a chance for the artists to speak for themselves and offer an insight into the Disney Company that we will not likely find elsewhere. You might pass up a book like this if you are a theme park junkie, but reading the stories from artists like Hench, Davis, Carlson and Anderson--that worked on Disneyland and Walt Disney World projects--are wonderful. Bottom Line: It is hard to place a work like Walt's People in the overall Disney literature--it doesn't focus solely on animation or the theme parks. The interviews collected are amazing and offer insight into Disney, the Studios and the theme parks. The volumes are not for everyone, but the Disney historian, enthusiast and geek will take a lot away from Dider's work. It is a great place to get your Geek on and delve into what it was like to know and work with Walt Disney, Roy Disney and the talented people in the organization. I can't wait to start the next volume in the series! www.imaginerding.com
