About the song:

This is the Snow Miser song from the children's classic movie, "A Year Without Santa Claus".

Although not my best sequence, I was particularly proud of of it in that it was my first attempt to not just flash the lights to the music, but to actually use the lights to help tell the story. In particular, the bay window (right) represented the Snow Miser himself.

I was rather unhappy that the red trees in front ended up doing some very minor dancing to one of the background sounds. I wanted to have the trees dance in tune with the musical notes of the very active toy piano. I searched dilligently for sheet music, but in the end, I came up empty handed. I did get a reply from the official biographer of Rankin/Bass. According to him, "Maury is very protective of it because of the symphony he is working on, plus he signed a contract with Jules Bass for the new live-action special on NBC this year." But there is some hope that they'll eventually be releasing the sheet music for this song.

A few of the light blue elements in the song (windows, trees in front) seems to have gotten lost in the video capture process, but can be viewed in the animation window if you download this sequence.
