Harmonious Pre Show Music?

[chazabel]

For anyone who has seen Harmonious...is there special music they play around World Showcase as the show draws near? We always loved the music they played for around an hour before Illuminations as people started staking out their spots. I would love if they still played this same music before Harmonious!

I don't remember any special music being played before Harmonius started. Seemed like what they played throughout the day. Maybe I wasn't paying attention.

I really wish they would return to the special music that they played AFTER Illuminations. This song:

There was nothing like the feeling of listening to Tapestry of Nations while the torches burned around the World Showcase and you slowly worked your way to the exit after a magical night!

Thanks for finding that. I had forgotten how good that was.

We were at La Hacienda for dinner last night and watched Harmonious during dessert. No special music was piped in before the show.

I staked out my square of concrete at the top of World Showcase about an hour ahead of time. No special music that I recall.

You're talking about the "Club Epcot" music that played about an hour before illuminations? I loved that music. Sad if it's gone.

The music definitely changes. It changes to a weird, non-country-specific thing that's a lot louder than the country music.

It's not Harmonious specific, though. It happened with Epcot Forever.

I haven't seen Harmonious, but if you want to listen to the pre-Illuminations music it's here:

I listen to it a lot.

That's so pretty! Some of the pieces of that sound like they may be the same kind of music as what they use currently, but I don't hear anything familiar from it in there so I don't think it's the same.

Was the view good? Did they pipe the music into the restaurant during the show? I have a reservation during fireworks time and wondering if I want to keep it : )

 

[MICKIMINI]

Yes to both! Enjoy!

Views can be hit or miss depending on where you are seated

Any recommendations on where to request seating in the restaurant?

 

[Sweettears]

By the windows. The seating in back has limited viewing but the fireworks are still somewhat visible.
