All kinds of fantastic entertainment productions have debuted this summer at Disney California Adventure park, from the Red Car News Boys to Mad T Party. A lesser-known gem among these new shows, though, is “Instant Concert! … just add water,” a symphonic series of music and water on the shores of Paradise Bay.

Narrated in the style of the classic “How To” cartoons of the 1940s, each performance features the unexpectedly accomplished Maestro Goofy. He strides to the podium and raises his baton to conduct the fountains in the bay, providing both comic and dramatic interpretations of compositions ranging from “Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2” to “Holiday for Strings.” Take a look:


These 5-minute mini-concerts happen several times each day in the Paradise Park area near The Little Mermaid ~ Ariel’s Undersea Adventure.
