I've found a complete version of "Bugs Bunny in Rhapsody Rabbit" on Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vm-Ige8x3X4&feature=related It's a foreign-language version but that doesn't matter as there is so little dialogue anyway. (For those who want to know, when the telephone rings, Bugs says "Franz Liszt? Never heard of him"). This is art on every level, folks, and an interpretation of Hungarian Rhapsody number 2 which I feel certain Liszt would have delighted in. My favourite parts are the piano keys moving like a typewriter carriage (something todays young people may be unaware of!) and the keys being gathered up and scattered down. You will note that the piano appears to have downward striking hammers - perhaps one of the Mathushek models Alfred Dolge talks about burning! You won't be able to listen to Hungarian Rhapsody No 2 after this, without hearing in it a telephone ringing and Figaro. This whole thing is a wonderful piece of the animator's art. Look at the bend and stretch of the mouse's little piano at the end. Best regards, David. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
