Based on E. B. White’s popular children’s book of the same name, it tells the story of a young trumpeter swan who is born without a voice and is vying for the attention of a beautiful swan. He overcomes this by learning to play the trumpet. —Wikipedia.org
Y'know not actually timing your animation and making it snappy and instead inbetweening the balls out of it isn't exactly a good way out. Though I think Dick Rich's "The King and I" is much worse than his later "Trumpet of the Swan", there's still much to take unlightly. Outside of the Little Richard number, kids will more likely be underwhelmed by it and adults will find an irritating level of unremarkablity.
