8-bit Music Theory | Rosalina is a Disney Princess (musically) @8bitMusicTheory | Uploaded March 2022 | Updated October 2024, 1 day ago.
Rosalina's Observatory is a beautiful piece of music with a whimsical, dreamy quality that sounds like it was pulled right out of an old Disney movie. In this video I explore how the piece borrows from old Disney Princess music, as well as the broader Romantic musical tradition, to create this effect.
