The title says it all. Tom & Jerry are at the Hollywood Bowl, where Tom is conducting an all-feline orchestra, most of whom are replicas of him. Jerry gets in on the action. This was the 3rd musical short for the two, and, I believe, the last under Bill Hanna & Joe Barbera. We know, of course, that Chuck Jones would serve up the jazzy "Rock 'n' Rodent" several years later.
The music, under the real life direction of Scott Bradley, is Johann Strauss' overture to "Die Fiedermaus".
Rating: A.
