From the early days of Disney, music played a vital role in making the films sing. Over time the studio's use of music morphed from backing track to cultural product in its own right, with songs so powerful that they dominated the charts and made pop stars of their singers.
In this video Maha Albadrawi charts the rise of the Disney hit machine from Silly Symphonies to streaming. She explains how songs like Let It Go (Frozen), We Don't Talk About Bruno (Encanto) and How Far I'll Go (Moana) came to dominate the world of pop.
Making Magic: 100 Years of Disney, a season celebrating Disney's centenary, is running at the BFI Southbank throughout July and August. More information: whatson.bfi.or...
