Heigh-Ho Mozart is a selection of popular Disney tunes performed by various classical groups in -- what else? -- arrangements that try to recreate Mozart's style. Not all of them work -- some of the melodies just don't hold up well under this treatment, and of course, there's nothing here as complex as the real McCoy. But that's not likely to matter to Disney fans, and if you are one, you'll probably enjoy new treatments of these familiar melodies a great deal.
