The first color [[Mickey Mouse]] cartoon, and still one of his most popular of the [[Classic Disney Shorts]], '''"[[The Band Concert]]"''' is a [[The Golden Age of Animation|1935]] cartoon in which Mickey attempts to conduct Giacomo Rossini's ''William Tell'' Overture at a outdoor picnic, but is frequently interrupted by [[Donald Duck]], who attempts to play "[[Standard Snippet|Turkey in the Straw]]" [[Hammerspace|with his infinite arsenal of fifes.]] [[Hilarity Ensues]].
 
The short currently holds #3 on Jerry Beck's "[[The 50 Greatest Cartoons]]" list, the highest ranking Disney short on it.

{{tropelist}}
=== Tropes ===
* [[Amusing Injuries]]: Horace Horsecollar hits a colleague instrumentalist with his cymbals and a hammer in an attempt to kill an annoying bee.
* [[Call Back]]: The Sega CD version of ''[[Mickey Mania]]'' has a level based on this cartoon included as a bonus.
** ''[[House of Mouse]]'' in one episode had Mickey briefly don his band concert uniform for a second when he was shifting through his many designs over the years to prove he was really Mickey in that episode.
** When Mickey meets Horace Horsecollar in ''[[Epic Mickey]]'', Horace tries to entice Mickey's memory of him with this cartoon among others. (The provided photo had Horace [[Rule of Funny|almost out of frame]].)
Line 16:
* [[Do Not Touch the Funnel Cloud]]
* [[Early Installment Weirdness]]: Mostly with Donald's long-billed appearance. Donald also seems to be almost a toned-down [[Screwy Squirrel]] here, and is much shorter than Mickey.
* [[Exactly What It Says Onon the Tin]]: It's a band concert.
* [[Mickey Mousing]] Despite a lot of the music coming from on-screen instruments, there is still a lot of this going on.
* [[Nice Hat]]: Mickey and several of the band players wear them.
Line 24:
** Donald playing ''Turkey in the Straw'' on his fifes.
