(with The background is a blue sky with a few clouds and also references to birds added, such as a rooster weather vane on one of the towers, and pegs in front of the windows like those found on birdhouses.) Then, a shower of light descends from the top of the screen, forming a stylized, segmented castle which is lighter blue with all 7 flags and changing the background from a blue sky to just a blue background. The segments seem to be spaced farther apart by the time the light reaches the bottom. Through the main gate of the castle, a white ball of light forms then extends out to form the word "Disney" in the familiar corporate "Disney" logo font changing the background again and this time, to black and a light blue semi-circular line is drawn over the now light blue castle to the bottom left.

## Trivia

* This is the longest video ever made.
* This is the first appearance of 2nd Version of Duck in Playsoup form.
* This is the first appearances of Cameron and Ryan.
* This is the last appearances of Chloe, Colton and Sienna.
* This video had the return of many Legends and Lore puppets that had only appeared in one or two videos before; this is the last appearances of Rudy Reindeer, Tan Reindeer, Sunny Bunny (footage reused in World of Words), Wavy Walrus, Polar Bear, Violet Mouse (footage later reused in Animals Around Me), and Baby Vivaldi the Mallard as a puppet.
* The Accordion and Bontempi Wind Instruments: Saxophone was in Baby Bach and the Play at Home Saxophone was in the 2004 version.
* The Tin Drum was seen in the 2004 version of Baby Mozart and was later seen in the 2008 version of Baby Beethoven.
* It came out exactly three years after Baby Neptune (they both came out on March 18th).
* Despite the rabbits representing Bach, mallard ducks for Vivaldi, giraffes for Beethoven and koalas for Mozart, the percussion section is the only segment where the music matches the BE composer character which in this case is Beethoven. The other segments don't match the music with the BE composers, Haydn instead of Bach, Mozart instead of Vivaldi, and Beethoven instead of Mozart.
* Although one of the songs exclusive to the CD plays Bach, it doesn't play Vivaldi, but the Vivaldi song plays on the DVD menu.
* The back of the cover has a song by Brahms, but they don't have it in the video.
* The CD was released 3 months before the video came out.
* This is the first video to not be released on VHS and was released on DVD.
* The video was made one month after the Thomas videos, *Thomas and the Really Brave Engines and Other Adventures* and the DVD version of *Thomas Comes to Breakfast*.

## Trivia

* This is the longest video ever made.
* This is the first appearance of 2nd Version of Duck in Playsoup form.
* This is the first appearances of Cameron and Ryan.
* This is the last appearances of Chloe, Colton and Sienna.
* This video had the return of many Legends and Lore puppets that had only appeared in one or two videos before; this is the last appearances of Rudy Reindeer, Tan Reindeer, Sunny Bunny (footage reused in World of Words), Wavy Walrus, Polar Bear, Violet Mouse (footage later reused in Animals Around Me), and Baby Vivaldi the Mallard as a puppet.
* The Accordion and Bontempi Wind Instruments: Saxophone was in Baby Bach and the Play at Home Saxophone was in the 2004 version.
* The Tin Drum was seen in the 2004 version of Baby Mozart and was later seen in the 2008 version of Baby Beethoven.
* It came out exactly three years after Baby Neptune (they both came out on March 18th).
* Despite the rabbits representing Bach, mallard ducks for Vivaldi, giraffes for Beethoven and koalas for Mozart, the percussion section is the only segment where the music matches the BE composer character which in this case is Beethoven. The other segments don't match the music with the BE composers, Haydn instead of Bach, Mozart instead of Vivaldi, and Beethoven instead of Mozart.
* Although one of the songs exclusive to the CD plays Bach, it doesn't play Vivaldi, but the Vivaldi song plays on the DVD menu.
* The back of the cover has a song by Brahms, but they don't have it in the video.
* The CD was released 3 months before the video came out.
* This is the first video to not be released on VHS and was released on DVD.
* The video was made one month after the Thomas videos, *Thomas and the Really Brave Engines and Other Adventures* and the DVD version of *Thomas Comes to Breakfast*.
