Disney Plaza, or the "Esplanade," is the Main Gate of our Magic Kingdom. Naturally, the music heard hear is an atmospheric collection of Disney favorites, most orchestrated, others not, meant to set a tone for the adventure ahead. Seasonally, the music will change to reflect the holiday of Halloween or Christmas. Halloween, in particular, is heavy on vocalists and pulls from the original source material. Of course, those holiday loops will come at a later time.
** = Original Instrumental
No Marking = Original Song (w or w/o vocalist)
