Colonel Hathie's March

Composed by the legendary Sherman Brothers, the piece captures the film's whimsical tone through a stately, rhythmic composition that mirrors the pompous nature of the elephant character. The track exemplifies the studio's mid-century approach to scoring, blending orchestral grandeur with playful character themes that have become synonymous with the brand.
