This uses classic toons from 1950 up to 1959 and loosely forms them together into a single classical toony concert. The main sequences are from The Rabbit Of Seville (where we get to the only shot of Bugs with 5 fingers), Baton Bunny, What’s Opera Doc (most people know it as Kill The Wabbit), and then Back Alley Oproar. They rerecorded the music new from Back Alley though due to copyright problems, so there’s a big difference from Carl Stalling’s work over to the 90s version.

It’s easy to tell the difference between the newer 90s stuff and the classic 50s stuff. It’s like the difference between a diamond & a piece of glass. The line work is inconsistent & sloppy, there’s a distinct difference between the original Mel Blanc voices & then Bergman’s, and the timing is off with the music cues. It’s fun, but What’s Opera Doc was the 1st cartoon preserved by the Library Of Congress & it’s award winning, so it’s noticeable when that genius work is spliced with sloppy 90s stuff. It’s like some art student coming in 100 years later & adding their own brushstrokes to a Rembrandt.
