From the initial encouragement of famed conductor Leopold Stokowski to early work at Bell Labs and Disney Studios, the genesis of Surround Sound will be explored in a comprehensive multi-media presentation, which will include the first electrical recording of a symphony orchestra and surround sound excerpts from Fantasia."

[This is the first part of a two-part presentation. Part 2 continues as "Surround Sound—Quadraphonic Sound in the 1970s."]
