What it’s about. Three distinct segments: 1) A dog is taking a music lesson from a lion when a mouse starts playing as well. 2) The "Bouncing Ball" segment, consisting of the words to the title song. 3) Some kooky animation of an "Instrument Orchestra," in which the instruments are playing themselves, and a whole cast of animals march to the last chorus.

How it landed. With an audience score of 1.0/10, Alexander's Ragtime Band has proved divisive with audiences.
