Garbo ChristinaFind this scene on my YT channel here and apologies for the quality of the vid but it was the best available.

Stothart’s adorable “Donkey Serenade” is featured in The MGM Jubilee Overture, written in 1954 by 2nd music director Johnny Green and restored to the repertoire by my bonny.
