Voted no. 47 on Jerry Beck's [[The 50 Greatest Cartoons]] list, [[Bob Clampett]]'s ''[[A Corny Concerto]]'' (pronounced "Con-Shir-To", by the way), a [[Merrie Melodies]] short from [[The Golden Age of Animation|1943]] is a [[Affectionate Parody|parody]] of [[Walt Disney]]'s ''[[Fantasia]]'', keeping the musical aspect fully intact, but throws ''Fantasia''{{'}}s highbrow attitude right out the window in favor of slapstick and hilarious sight gags (as well as throwing in sound effects and [[Voice Grunting]]). The short is split into two segments: "Tales from the Vienna Woods", which is centered on one of the very few times [[Bugs Bunny]] and [[Porky Pig]] have shared screentime, and "Blue Danube", which is a retelling of "The Ugly Duckling" with [[Daffy Duck]] (or a baby version of him at any rate).
 
This short is in the [[Public Domain Animation|public domain]] and can be viewed [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MYk7PEi5kuY hereon YouTube] or downloaded from [https://archive.org/details/ACornyConcerto1943BugsBunny the Internet Archive].
 
The short has also made it onto ''[[The 100 Greatest Looney Tunes]]'' list.
