Cartoon with Schubert's Ghost?
July 19, 2006 7:04 PM   RSS feed for this thread Subscribe

Where can I find a cartoon short with the ghost of Schubert and possibly Bugs Bunny?

I have a very dim memory of a classic Warner Brothers cartoon in which Bugs Bunny helps the ghost of Schubert finish the unfinished symphony. Unfortunately, I don't know the title of the short. I hope it has been published in DVD form somewhere.

Of course, I could be partially wrong and it wasn't Bugs at all, but I'm almost positive it grabbed themes from the first movement of Schubert's Symphony #8.

Is it a Casper the Friendly Ghost cartoon?

Looks like that was actually the plot of a Casper the Friendly Ghost cartoon, "Boo Bop." It's described here: "Casper visits the Museum of Music. There he meets the ghost of Franz Schubert who is trying to finish an Unfinished Symphony on his piano. Casper just sits, listens, and tries to eliminate any noises coming from the streets." Looks like the DVD is available, too.

"In Boo Bop (1957), Casper visits the Museum of Music. There he meets the ghost of Franz Schubert who is trying to finish an Unfinished Symphony on his piano. Casper just sits, listens, and tries to eliminate any noises coming from the streets. This is another great Casper cartoon and the animation and backgrounds are reminiscent of other cartoons of the era. "

Possibly on this DVD, but I can not confirm:
