(Updated) Episode 141: How Disney's Theme Park Music Affects You (with Gregory Camp)

We talk with musicologist (and Disney parks fan) Dr. Gregory Camp about how Disney chooses music to convey mood and theme inside its theme parks. We've added music to the re-release of this episode, so you can hear what we're talking about.

Dr. Camp is the author of "Mickey Mouse Muzak: Shaping Experience Musically at Walt Disney World" - a peer-reviewed paper that explores Disney theme park music. You can read the paper at www.cambridge.org/core/journals/journal-of-the-society-for-american-music/article/mickey-mouse-muzak-shaping-experience-musically-at-walt-disney-world/72153D79F0A596EC3DBCED02EFBDBAF0
