'''''Soarin'''''', also known as '''''Soarin' Over California''''', '''''Soarin' Around the World''''', '''''Soaring Over the Horizon''''' and '''''Soaring: Fantastic Flight''''', is a [[Simulator ride|flight motion simulator]] attraction at [[Disney California Adventure]], [[Epcot]], [[Shanghai Disneyland]], and [[Tokyo DisneySea]]. It employs a mechanical lift system, a projected presentation on an {{convert|80|ft|m|abbr=on}} concave 180-degree dome screen, and artificial scents and wind to simulate a [[hang gliding]] flight over locations in six of the world's continents.<ref name="rebooted"/><ref name=OCShanghai/> Many consider it the first [[flying theater]].

The attraction's first iteration, '''''Soarin{{'}} Over California''''', was an opening day attraction at Disney California Adventure on February 8, 2001. It took guests over several locations in California and included a pre-show on the history of California's aviation industry. A second installation premiered at Epcot in [[Walt Disney World]] under the name ''Soarin{{'}}'' four years later in 2005.<ref name="Everest">{{cite news|date=October 11, 2003|title=Expedition Everest will be costliest addition|work=The Orlando Sentinel|url=https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-orlando-sentinel-expedition-everest/88617214/|access-date=July 21, 2025|via=Newspapers.com}}</ref> 

The current global version of the ride debuted at [[Shanghai Disneyland]] as ''Soaring Over the Horizon'' on June 16, 2016. The American versions were also replaced with the new film as ''Soarin{{'}} Around the World'' on June 17.<ref name="Soarin' Around the World Opening Day">{{cite web|last1=Lim|first1=Victoria|title=Soarin' Around the World Takes Flight at Disney Parks This Summer|url=https://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2016/04/soarin-around-the-world-takes-flight-at-disney-parks-this-summer/|website=Disney Parks Blog|access-date=April 20, 2016|language=en-us|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160910165841/https://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2016/04/soarin-around-the-world-takes-flight-at-disney-parks-this-summer/|archive-date=September 10, 2016}}</ref><ref name="glover">{{cite web|last1=Glover|first1=Erin|title=''Soarin' Around the World'' Coming to Walt Disney World and Disneyland Resorts|url=https://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2015/08/soarin-around-the-world-coming-to-walt-disney-world-and-disneyland-resorts/|website=DisneyParks Blog|publisher=Disney|access-date=February 29, 2016|date=August 16, 2015|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160225164706/http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2015/08/soarin-around-the-world-coming-to-walt-disney-world-and-disneyland-resorts/|archive-date=February 25, 2016}}</ref> A fourth version of the attraction, ''Soaring: Fantastic Flight'', opened at [[Tokyo DisneySea]] on July 23, 2019.<ref name="Soarin-TDS">{{cite web|url=https://ohmy.disney.com/insider/2016/04/27/beauty-and-the-beast-themed-land-big-hero-6-attraction-announced-for-tokyo-disneyland/|title=BEAUTY AND THE BEAST-THEMED LAND, BIG HERO 6 ATTRACTION ANNOUNCED FOR TOKYO DISNEYLAND|author=Drew Taylor|work=ohmy.disney.com|publisher=The Walt Disney Company|date=April 27, 2016|access-date=April 27, 2016|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160603183359/https://ohmy.disney.com/insider/2016/04/27/beauty-and-the-beast-themed-land-big-hero-6-attraction-announced-for-tokyo-disneyland/|archive-date=June 3, 2016}}</ref>

==Ride design==
[[File:Soarin over California - Disney California Adventure Park.jpg|thumb|left|Three rows of seating for the ride]]
''Soarin{{'}}'' was first conceptualized in 1996 as ''Ultra Flight'', a name that can still be seen on the tower consoles of the California Adventure attraction. It was to feature an [[OMNIMAX]] screen with an inverted track, allowing guests to fly over California's landmarks. It was to have three load levels, with a system operating on a horizontal cable, much like a dry cleaner's rack. The plan was abandoned when it was determined that the design's construction and labor costs would be prohibitive. It seemed that ''Soarin{{'}}'' wouldn't become a reality until engineer Mark Sumner developed a different idea for the ride vehicles, using an [[Erector Set]] and string to create a working model. The new design allowed Disney to efficiently load guests on one level instead of three, significantly cutting its building costs.

Each ride vehicle consists of three rows of seats under a wing-like canopy, with a capacity of 87 guests. After guests have been safely restrained in the vehicle with standard lap belts, the canopy descends slightly and a [[cantilever]] system lifts the chairs forward and into the air with the guests' feet dangling freely. The vehicle is lifted forward so that guests look into a large, concave movie screen onto which aerial views are projected. The original film's scenes were shot at an [[IMAX HD]] frame rate of 48 frames per second, twice the conventional rate of regular films. The vehicle is moved forward toward the center of the dome so guests can see only the projected images and experience the sensation of flight.  The ride structure contains about one million pounds (454,000&nbsp;kg) of steel; 37 tons (33.5 metric tonnes) are lifted during each ride cycle.

To enhance the illusion, subtle vertical movements of the seats are synchronized to the film. Sensations of horizontal motion are created with a combination of vertical carriage movement and turning the image on the screen. Scents complementing the scenes are also injected into the air streams blowing on riders. When it opened, the scent was only present during the [[Redwood Creek (Humboldt County)|Redwood Creek]] scene and the [[Valencia Orange|Valencia Orange Farms]] scene. In the updated show, scents include rose blossoms in the Taj Mahal scene, grass in the Africa scene, and a sea breeze in the South Pacific scene.<ref name="rebooted">{{cite web|url=https://www.latimes.com/travel/themeparks/la-tr-soarin-around-the-world-disney-20160622-snap-story.html|title=Disney's rebooted Soarin' ride takes flight over worldwide landmarks|first=Brady|last=MacDonald|work=Los Angeles Times|date=June 22, 2016|access-date=July 20, 2016|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160725212604/http://www.latimes.com/travel/themeparks/la-tr-soarin-around-the-world-disney-20160622-snap-story.html|archive-date=July 25, 2016}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://ohmy.disney.com/insider/2016/06/25/soarin-around-the-world-questions/|title=All Of Your Soarin' Around the World Questions, Answered|date=June 25, 2016|work=Oh My Disney|publisher=disney.com|access-date=July 20, 2016|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160822151001/https://ohmy.disney.com/insider/2016/06/25/soarin-around-the-world-questions/|archive-date=August 22, 2016}}</ref>

===Disney California Adventure===
[[File:Soarin Over California Updated Entrance - July 17th 2015.JPG|thumb|right|''Soarin{{'}} Over California'' at Disney California Adventure]]
''Soarin{{'}} Around the World'' is in the Grizzly Peak Airfield section of [[Disney California Adventure]] at the [[Disneyland Resort]]. One of the resort's most popular attractions, it utilizes the park's Lightning Lane Multi-Pass system, allowing guests to reserve specific ride times to avoid long queues.

While in line, guests pass the Wings of Fame, an homage to California's aviation history, including profiles of the [[P-51 Mustang]], [[SR-71 Blackbird]], and [[Bell X-1]]. There is also a section dedicated to aviators such as [[John J. Montgomery]], [[Amelia Earhart]], [[Jimmy Doolittle]], [[Charles Lindbergh]], [[Jack Northrop]], the [[Wright brothers]], [[Howard Hughes]], [[Jacqueline Cochran]], [[Kelly Johnson (engineer)|Kelly Johnson]], [[Paul MacCready]], and [[Chuck Yeager]]. Inspirational music from a variety of aviation-related films is played in the queue areas, including ''[[Patton (film)|Patton]]'', ''[[MacArthur (1977 film)|MacArthur]]'', ''[[Air Force One (film)|Air Force One]]'', ''[[The Blue Max]]'', ''[[Explorers (film)|Explorers]]'' (all by [[Jerry Goldsmith]]), ''[[The American President]]'' (by [[Marc Shaiman]]), ''[[Dragonheart]]'', ''[[Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story]]'', [[Angels in the Outfield (1994 film)|Angels in the Outfield (1994)]] (both by [[Randy Edelman]]), ''[[The Last Starfighter]]'' (by [[Craig Safan]]), ''[[Apollo 13 (film)|Apollo 13]]'', and ''[[The Rocketeer (film)|The Rocketeer]]'' (both by [[James Horner]]), ''[[Always (1989 film)|Always]]'' (by [[John Williams]]) and the [[HBO]] miniseries ''[[Band of Brothers (TV miniseries)|Band of Brothers]]'' (by [[Michael Kamen]]). ''The Air Force Song'' and "Jupiter" from [[Gustav Holst]]'s orchestral suite ''[[The Planets]]'' are also heard, based on their use in ''[[The Right Stuff (film)|The Right Stuff]]''.

Before entering the theater area, guests are placed in one of three preshow areas, called Alpha Gate, Bravo Gate, and Charlie Gate (named for the first three letters of the [[NATO phonetic alphabet]]). Just before boarding, guests see a pre-boarding video hosted by their chief flight attendant, [[Patrick Warburton]].<ref name="rebooted" />

The attraction opened with the park in 2001 as ''Soarin{{'}} Over California'' in what was then the park's Condor Flats area. In early 2015, it closed for refurbishment as the surrounding area was transformed into Grizzly Peak Airfield. It reopened on May 15, 2015, with new exterior theming and updates to its screen and projection system.<ref name="pimentel">{{cite news|url=http://www.ocregister.com/articles/disney-648380-disneyland-california.html|last1=Pimentel|first1=Joseph|title=Upgrades close several Disney rides|work=[[The Orange County Register]]|date=January 25, 2015|page=Local 2|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150308230808/http://www.ocregister.com/articles/disney-648380-disneyland-california.html|archive-date=March 8, 2015}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://disneyland.disney.go.com/attractions/disney-california-adventure/soarin-over-california/|title=Soarin' Over California|work=Disneyland|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150113025618/https://disneyland.disney.go.com/attractions/disney-california-adventure/soarin-over-california/|archive-date=January 13, 2015}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|last=Glover|first=Erin|title=New Smokejumpers Grill Opens March 20, Part of Grizzly Peak Expansion at Disney California Adventure Park|url=http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2015/03/new-smokejumpers-grill-opens-march-20-part-of-grizzly-peak-expansion-at-disney-california-adventure-park/|publisher=Disney Parks Blog|access-date=March 11, 2015|date=March 9, 2015|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150311145348/http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2015/03/new-smokejumpers-grill-opens-march-20-part-of-grizzly-peak-expansion-at-disney-california-adventure-park/|archive-date=March 11, 2015}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|last=Glover|first=Erin|title=Grizzly Peak Airfield Now Open at Disney California Adventure Park|url=http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2015/05/grizzly-peak-airfield-now-open-at-disney-california-adventure-park/|publisher=Disney Parks Blog|access-date=May 15, 2015|date=May 15, 2015|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150516201649/http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2015/05/grizzly-peak-airfield-now-open-at-disney-california-adventure-park/|archive-date=May 16, 2015}}</ref> It now utilizes a laser illuminated digital projection array, replacing its original IMAX systems.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.ocregister.com/articles/area-662361-scholz-disney.html|title=New Grizzly Peak Airfield at Disney California Adventure recalls scenic national parks|access-date=July 12, 2015|author=Mark Eades |date=May 19, 2015 |quote=According to Scholz, advances in laser illumination technology allowed Disney to upgrade the projectors without a sacrifice in the quality of the show.|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150713031616/http://www.ocregister.com/articles/area-662361-scholz-disney.html|archive-date=July 13, 2015}}</ref> Several exterior changes include the replacement of the mock-up [[RS-25]] rocket engine with a [[fire lookout tower]].

The attraction was duplicated, simply as ''Soarin{{'}}'', and officially opened inside "[[The Land (Epcot)|The Land]]" pavilion at [[Epcot]] in [[Walt Disney World]] on May 5, 2005, along with ''[[Lights, Motors, Action!: Extreme Stunt Show]]'' at [[Disney's Hollywood Studios]] as part of the [[Happiest Celebration on Earth]] festival.<ref>{{Cite news |date=2005-03-16 |title=Soarin' to open soon at Epcot |pages=C2 |work=The Orlando Sentinel |url=https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-orlando-sentinel-soarin-to-open-soo/143476426/ |access-date=2024-03-16}}</ref> Unlike the Disney California Adventure version, the show had guests taking flights ''to'' California. The concept was reinforced with theming of guests being loaded into "gates", with airport-themed spiels referring to "Flight 5505", an homage to the attraction's opening day. Cast members wear costumes resembling flight attendant uniforms, whereas the California version wear airfield crew uniforms.

The Epcot queue originally had pictures of natural wonders from around the world, not just California. It utilized a new infrared technology that allows guests to participate in interactive games. In 2009, this interactive technology appeared in the [[Magic Kingdom]] as part of a seven-month overhaul of [[Space Mountain (Magic Kingdom)|Space Mountain]]. These interactive games were replaced with the ''Soarin' Challenge'', a team-based game of trivia with questions pertaining to geography, landmarks, and cultures. Guests utilize displays throughout the queue and the companion [[MyMagic+|''Play Disney Parks'']] smartphone app to join one of four colored teams (red, purple, yellow, and green) and help their team achieve the highest score by answering questions correctly and quickly.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/attractions/epcot/soarin-around-world/ |access-date=2024-07-10 |website=disneyworld.disney.go.com|title=Soarin' Around the World at EPCOT &#124; Walt Disney World Resort}}</ref>

The attraction closed for refurbishment on January 4, 2016, and was originally slated to reopen on June 17, with a third theater to coincide with the release of the new ''Soarin{{'}} Around the World'' film.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2015/03/more-opportunities-to-soar-enjoy-toy-story-mania-coming-to-walt-disney-world-resort/|title=More Opportunities to Soar, Enjoy Toy Story Mania Coming to Walt Disney World Resort|access-date=July 12, 2015|author=Thomas Smith |url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150713040145/http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2015/03/more-opportunities-to-soar-enjoy-toy-story-mania-coming-to-walt-disney-world-resort/|archive-date=July 13, 2015}}</ref><ref name="world">{{cite web|url=http://behindthethrills.com/2015/08/d23-soarin-around-the-world-coming-to-both-epcot-and-disneys-california-adventure/|title=D23: Soarin Around the World coming to both Epcot and Disney's California Adventure!|access-date=August 15, 2015|author=Erik|website= Behind the Thrills|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150817123357/http://behindthethrills.com/2015/08/d23-soarin-around-the-world-coming-to-both-epcot-and-disneys-california-adventure/|archive-date=August 17, 2015}}</ref> The ride reopened with the original film on May 27, and the change to the new film occurred on June 17, 2016.<ref name="Around the World Opening">{{cite web|last1=Lim|first1=Victoria|title=Last Chance to Experience the Classic Soarin' at Epcot and Disney California Adventure Before Soarin' Around the World Debuts on June 17|url=https://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2016/05/last-chance-to-experience-the-classic-soarin-at-epcot-and-disney-california-adventure-before-soarin-around-the-world-debuts-on-june-17/|website=Disney Parks Blog|access-date=May 23, 2016|language=en-us|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160521142239/https://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2016/05/last-chance-to-experience-the-classic-soarin-at-epcot-and-disney-california-adventure-before-soarin-around-the-world-debuts-on-june-17/|archive-date=May 21, 2016}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|last1=Bevil|first1=Dewayne|title=Disney: Opening dates for Frozen ride, Soarin', Star Wars fireworks, more|url=http://www.orlandosentinel.com/travel/attractions/theme-park-rangers-blog/os-disney-epcot-frozen-ride-open-20160520-story.html|website=OrlandoSentinel.com|access-date=May 23, 2016|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160523091815/http://www.orlandosentinel.com/travel/attractions/theme-park-rangers-blog/os-disney-epcot-frozen-ride-open-20160520-story.html|archive-date=May 23, 2016}}</ref>

Disney announced that ''Soarin' Over California'' would temporarily return to the park on September 22, 2023, as part of Disney's '''100 Years of Wonder''' celebration.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Soarin' Over California returning to Disney World |url=https://www.mynews13.com/fl/orlando/attractions/2023/09/10/soarin-over-california-returning-to-disney-world |access-date=2024-01-10 |website=www.mynews13.com |language=en}}</ref> This return run ended February 27, 2024 and ''Soarin' Around the World'' returned.

The film ends with a flyover of Epcot's Future World (now World Celebration). In the original 2016 version, this included the Fountain of Nations, [[Innoventions (Epcot)|Innoventions]], and [[Spaceship Earth (Epcot)|Spaceship Earth]]. After a redesign of Future World that was completed in 2024, the film was updated to remove the former signage and buildings, all of which were prominently visible in the film, with an updated visual that included the redesigned World Celebration area. This updated ending premiered on November 20, 2024. The new ending also fixed the Eiffel Tower scene, which had become popular due to the way the tower distorted as the camera flew over it.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-11-20 |title=BREAKING: Soarin' Around the World Updates Ending to Add World Celebration, Eiffel Tower Scene Changed - WDW News Today |url=https://wdwnt.com/2024/11/soarin-update-world-celebration-eiffel-tower/ |access-date=2024-11-21 |website=wdwnt.com |language=en-US}}</ref> The new ending, which stays farther away from the tower, has less distortion.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Bricker |first=Tom |date=2024-11-21 |title=Disney World Updates & Fixes Soarin' at EPCOT! |url=https://www.disneytouristblog.com/disney-world-updates-fixes-soarin-at-epcot/ |access-date=2025-05-08 |website=Disney Tourist Blog |language=en-US}}</ref>

=== Shanghai Disneyland ===
The attraction was retooled as ''Soaring Over the Horizon'' for [[Shanghai Disneyland]]. It was not part of the park's original plan, but was added to it after [[Walt Disney Imagineering]] began developing similar attractions for the U.S. parks.<ref>{{cite news|last1=Makinen|first1=Julie|title=Disney's popular 'Soaring' ride gets a Shanghai reboot|url=https://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-shanghai-disney-soaring-1465963845-htmlstory.html|access-date=August 22, 2016|work=Los Angeles Times|date=June 17, 2016|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160820155522/http://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-shanghai-disney-soaring-1465963845-htmlstory.html|archive-date=August 20, 2016}}</ref> Located in the park's Adventure Isle area, it opened with the park on June 16, 2016.

Embedded in the Adventure Isle setting, the attraction is presented as an ancient observatory and temple to Q'otar, the Arbori tribe's Condor god.<ref>{{cite web|title=Soaring Over the Horizon {{!}} Shanghai Disney Resort|url=https://www.shanghaidisneyresort.com/en/attractions/soaring-over-horizon/|website=www.shanghaidisneyresort.com|language=en}}</ref> The preshow and safety spiel are hosted by a shaman of the tribe who grants guests the ability of flight, but has trouble controlling her own shapeshifting abilities.<ref>{{cite AV media |date= June 20, 2016|title= SHDL Soaring Over the Horizon(Preshow) ソアリン オーバー・ザ・ホライズン（プレショー）|url= https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w6xwm7gmBt8  |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211221/w6xwm7gmBt8 |archive-date=2021-12-21 |url-status=live|format= YouTube|publisher= rogermosphere}}{{cbignore}}</ref>

On September 23, 2025, it was announced that an expansion plans for the attraction, including new finale scene and more, in Adventure Isle at Shanghai Disneyland.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Ace |first=Shannen |date=2025-09-23 |title=Shanghai Disney Announces Soaring Over the Horizon Expansion, New Finale |url=https://wdwnt.com/2025/09/shanghai-disney-soaring-over-the-horizon-expansion-new-finale/ |access-date=2025-09-24 |website=WDW News Today |language=en-US}}</ref>

===Tokyo DisneySea===
<!-- Deleted image removed: [[File:Soarin-TokyoSea.jpg|right|thumb|200px|Artist's concept of Tokyo DisneySea version of ''Soarin{{'}}'']] -->
On April 27, 2016, [[Tokyo Disney Resort]] announced a number of coming attractions for [[Tokyo Disneyland]] and [[Tokyo DisneySea]] parks,<ref name="Soarin-TDS"/> including a proposed version of ''Soarin{{'}}'' (titled ''Soaring: Fantastic Flight'') to be in the Mediterranean Harbor section of Tokyo DisneySea.<ref name="Soarin-TDS"/> The announcement said this version would have a different theme, with ride vehicles designed as [[Renaissance|Renaissance-era]] Dream Flyers created by aviator and Society of Explorers and Adventurers member Camellia Falco. It opened on July 23, 2019.

In this version of the attraction, rather than an aviation terminal, it is set in the Museum of Fantastic Flight, which is hosting a retrospective on the life of Camellia Falco. Her spirit takes guests to see some of her Dream Flyer gliders, and invites them on a flight of fantasy around the world. (Falco's name was first seen by guests at [[Disneyland]]'s Tropical Hideaway restaurant as one of the names on a series of oars belonging to members of the Society.)<ref>{{cite web |title=Soarin: Fantastic Flight - S.E.A. Link Confirmed |url=https://jungleskipper.com/news/disneysea/soarin-fantastic-flight-sea-link-confirmed |website=Jungle Skipper |language=en |date=18 January 2019 |last1=Skipper |first1=Jungle |access-date=March 23, 2020 |archive-date=March 23, 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200323182120/https://jungleskipper.com/news/disneysea/soarin-fantastic-flight-sea-link-confirmed |url-status=dead }}</ref>

Two other differences can be seen in this version of the film: the Paris scene is replaced with Tokyo at sunset, with [[Mount Fuji]] in the background; and the finale is a flight over Tokyo DisneySea.

===''Soarin' Over California''===
[[File:Soarin' Over California.JPG |thumb |right |''Soarin{{'}} Over California'' exterior as it appeared from 2001 to 2014 at Disney California Adventure]]
The original ride film, which lasts four minutes and 51 seconds, takes guests on a simulated hang-glider tour of California. Appropriate scents (citrus, pine, sagebrush, ocean mist) fill the air as the ride vehicles move gently to simulate the sensations of flight. In addition to the state's various landscapes, it also highlights its diverse recreation, including [[snow skiing]], river [[rafting]], [[kayaking]], [[golf]], [[horseback riding]], [[hot air ballooning]], [[surfing]], and [[hang gliding]]. Its locations are: 
* [[Golden Gate Bridge]] in [[San Francisco]] & [[Marin County, California|Marin County]]

The original ''Soarin{{'}} Over California'' ride film at both Disney California Adventure and Epcot has an orchestral score by [[Jerry Goldsmith]], who is said to have come down from his first ride in tears. In addition to finding it visually beautiful and magical, he said that his father was a pilot who loved all things Californian. "I'd do anything to be part of this project," Goldsmith said. "I'd even score the film for free."<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.laughingplace.com/News-ID115170.asp |title=The new Disney California Adventure Official Album |access-date=September 9, 2009 |author=Jim Hill Media |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081010143938/http://www.laughingplace.com/News-ID115170.asp |archive-date=October 10, 2008  }}</ref> His soundtrack plays during the entire attraction, starting with a crescendo in the low [[String instrument|strings]] while the screen is still dark. Numerous variations of a serene theme for [[French horn|horn]] and strings are heard, and several statements of a fanfare accompanies the grandest vistas. The original ride score was included on [[Disneyland Resort]] and Walt Disney World official albums, including ''[[Walt Disney Records: The Legacy Collection#Disneyland|Walt Disney Records The Legacy Collection: Disneyland]]''. It continues to be heard as ambient music in the Disneyland Resort Esplanade and Epcot's entrance plaza.
