History WesternAnimation / AllegroNonTroppo

* {{Panspermia}}: Spoofed on "Boléro". Apparently, the primordial soup was actually Coke.

** Socialist Italy in TheSeventies wasn't a big fan of American capitalism, and it shows.

* HappyEnding:Parodied. Even though the words "HAPPY END" appear as the movie finishes, the actual conclusion of the movie feels more like a GainaxEnding.

* ''Boléro'' by Music/MauriceRavel--Possibly he film's most famous sequence, where a soda bottle left on a wasteland creates an evolution of bizarre creatures in a parody of The Rite of Spring from ''Fantasia''. It was frequently used as filler on HBO in the 1980s (so the next movie would start at the top of the hour).

* ''Prélude à l'après-midi d'un faune'' by Claude Debussy--A parody of Beethoven's Pastorale from ''Fantasia'', where an elderly faun tries to get a nymph for himself, but fails every time.
* ''Slavonic Dance No. 7 Op. 46'' by Antonín Dvořák -A caveman sets out to build better dwellings than the other cavemen, who repeatedly mimic every act he does.
* ''Boléro'' by Maurice Ravel--Possibly the film's most famous sequence, where a soda bottle left on a wasteland creates an evolution of bizarre creatures in a parody of The Rite of Spring from ''Fantasia''.

* ''Concerto in C major for 2 Oboes, 2 Clarinets, Strings and Continuo RV 559 I. Larghetto - (Allegro)'' by Antonio Vivaldi--A bee tries to enjoy a meal on a flower only to have a rowdy couple thwart her attempts.
* ''The Firebird'' by Igor Stravinsky--God makes Adam and Eve and the serpent tries to get them to eat the apple of knowledge. When they refuse, the serpent eats it himself and is thrown into a hellish environment of Western materialism and commercialism.

** In-universe example: After seeing the conductor torment the animator for three full segments, is it any wonder that the man [[spoiler: actually the evil monkey]] at the end of ''Boléro'' so strongly resembles him?

* BlackEyesOfEvil: The monkey in Bolero.

* BreatherEpisode: You'll be glad for the lighthearted piece with the bee after "Valse Triste".

* FromNobodyToNightmare: The evil monkey starts off as a confused inhabitant of the forest, who later leaves with the rest of the animals. Bitter about it, the monkey starts off as a JerkAss whose purpose is to frighten the other animals during the march. However as it discovers the use of tools, it becomes more [[MoralEventHorizon vile as it begins murdering other animals in order to take their place in the line of evolution]] and [[ForTheEvulz begins to burn animals to death with sickening delight after discovering fire]] and by the finale (through leaping ahead of the line by a long shot) the monkey has become a CompleteMonster [[spoiler: by killing all the animals in the construction of its new civilization as it admires its work, now fully evolved into a towering giant admiring its work...the creature known as Man]]
