Mannheim Steamroller Meets the Mouse provides just what the title suggests, a collection of some of Disney's best-known songs interpreted by Mannheim Steamroller's Chip Davis. His versions of "Chim Chim Cheree," "Under the Sea," "You've Got a Friend in Me," and "When You Wish Upon a Star" provide a whimsical, affectionate tribute to Disney's best composers and songwriters. ~ Heather Phares Mannheim's keyboardist and mastermind Chip Davis has made a long, profitable career out of combining classical-tinged orchestrations with various pop traditions in an instrumental context. Davis takes his modus operandi to its next logical step on MEETS THE MOUSE, where he tackles the Disney Songbook. Classic tunes like "Chim Chim Cher-ee" and "Heigh-Ho" rub shoulders with more recent Disney-derived compositions like Randy Newman's "You've Got a Friend in Me." Throughout, the themes are picked up by Davis' keyboards and a flexible orchestra that sounds equally at home with the classical influences in Davis' arrangements and the timeless pop craftsmanship of the songs.
