Symphony of Sorcery is a Sleeping World that is featured in Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance, the second to be based on the Disney film, Fantasia. The world features Mickey as a sorcerer commanding the Brooms.

Like Timeless River and Country of the Musketeers, Symphony of Sorcery is set in the past, during a period where Mickey was in pursuit of knowledge to become a Keyblade Master.

Development

Since the conception of the first Kingdom Hearts, Tetsuya Nomura had wanted to include a world based on Fantasia, but was unable to and ended up only including Chernabog as a boss in End of the World, though in a battlefield very similar to the Night on Bald Mountain segment.[1]

Story

Between Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep and Kingdom Hearts

Sometime after Terra-Xehanort's descent into darkness, his Heartless, Ansem, Seeker of Darkness, attacked many worlds and swallowed them into the darkness. One of these worlds was Symphony of Sorcery. Though it was restored after Sora defeated Ansem and destroyed the End of the World, Symphony of Sorcery remained in a state of deep sleep instead of returning to the Realm of Light, plagued by Nightmare Dream Eaters.

Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance

The world was first announced in a January issue of Famitsu. Several locations based on Fantasia were shown in January issues. Mickey Mouse is shown wearing his attire from Sorcerer's Apprentice working magic on the brooms inside the Mysterious Tower, and demonstrating a beautiful performance of his mastery over magic on top of a mountain platform. Riku is shown facing Chernabog, in a location based on the Night on Bald Mountain segment, as well as standing in front of a book that plays a symphony. Sora is seen confronting the Unknown in an area based on the Pastoral Symphony. Other screenshots show landscapes resembling both the Nutcracker Suite symphony.
