Sorry to bother y’all with my silly question about the background music, but it really bugged me when I couldn’t place where I heard it before. Thank you everyone for your efforts to enlighten me.
I think this is what one would call a labor of love.
The music is called “In the Hall of the Mountain King” which is part of Ibsen’s play called Peer Gent. I don’t think it was in Fantasia. It does sound a little like Inspector Gadget’s theme yet it isn’t. “A Night on Bald Mountain” was part of Fantasia.
I believe something like that is call a paraphrase, and parts were taken from the music of Peer Gent and used in Inspector Gadget. Not sure, I just knew it sounded familiar, somehow. I never saw the movie, just kind of remember it from the cartoon. With the neat rebuilding of this motor in the video, probably made me think of “gadgets.” 🙂 Again, thanks, Raymond for the title and to all the others for the education. 😉

Thanks, Raymond! 🙂 I just didn’t know the title of the song. It is indeed the Inspector Gadget theme song. Thanks! 🙂

I’ve never seen Inspector Gadget, but go to You Tube and type in under videos:
“In the Hall of the Mountain King”.

I love the video. Wish my dad were still around to see it. He made a living as a mechanic all his life.
