Poll: Classic Whimsical Scores
Heartfelt, lighthearted with a touch of droll eccentricity carried by the playful little tune or a flute, a clarinet or an accordion with eventual bits of violin conveying a magical but awkwardly appealing resonance, these memorable scores evoke many simple but touching images of delighted nonchalance, joie de vivre or a couple riding a bike across a sunny or bucolic setting.
Which of these memorable scores that fit the description is your favorite?

My favorite whimsical score isn't whimsical in the way the author describes it in the poll... and that's my final word.
