To answer the thousands of fans of Jo – The Little Women Musical, composer Dan Redfeld created piano/vocal arrangements of the show’s most popular songs. Symbols of Sound worked with Redfeld to edit and engrave sheet music of the arrangements. Redfeld also commissioned SoS’ Danita Ng-Poss to arrange an easy/simplified solo piano version of Jo’s most popular, award-winning song, “Fly Away”.

For three years, SoS has been working with composer Dan Redfeld on the new musical based on Louisa May Alcott’s classic novel Little Women.

Transcription of Songs Old and New

SoS’s latest Disney feature is Snow White; a musical with over a dozen songs featuring choirs and multiple characters that needed transcription to sheet music for localization. In addition, some songs had separate edits for the film’s soundtrack album, requiring review and sometimes completely different sheet music.

One of the highlights of the project was the inclusion of some of Disney’s earliest songs, like “Heigh Ho”. Our work provided the opportunity to dissect and marvel at the superb musical craft that causes these songs to remain classics nearly 90 years later. And, yes, there was some whistling while we worked!

Wish Multi-Language Video

Asha sings "This Wish" in 29 languages

Disney created a multi-language video of the song “This Wish” from the film “Wish”. The video features vocal performances in 29 different languages. Each of the non-English performances, as for all songs in the film, was created with the vocal transcriptions produced by Symbols of Sound.


The video is an excellent example of how accurate transcription and sheet music creation enables dubbing that can match the quality of the original language. It also showcases the highly-skilled localization teams around the world working in conjunction with Disney Character Voices International. A dizzying array of performers, translators, engineers, cultural consultants, and many others coordinate to create Disney magic in dozens of languages.
