> And, Dear Sir, I regret to inform you that you have conflated 2 > American classic cartoons: the "Tom and Jerry" cartoon (MGM) featuring > H.R. #2, and the "Bugs Bunny" cartoon (Warner Brothers) also featuring > this great Liszt piece. Please be aware that we take our cartoons very > seriously, here!!! Oh I assure you gentle sir, verily, that I conflate nothing! We take our cartoons seriously here too! I shared an office for years with my colleague Martin who teaches animation. I am aware of both the Tom & Jerry and the Bugs Bunny animations. In the latter, Bugs Bunny has competition from a little mouse inside the piano, who in fact ends up finishing the piece on a tiny piano of his own. En route, a trill becomes the phone ringing, the aria "Figaro" emerges, and there is a boogie wooogie interlude. The mouse, who doesn't speak, also has a little flute. Best regards, David.
