America the Beautiful was a circle-vision movie attraction in Disneyland In California and Walt Disney World in Florida. The footage first shot in 1955 and ran in Disney Circle-Vision 360 film theaters.
Circle-Vision 360 is a film technique that uses multiple cameras arranged in a circle. The viewing image is displayed on a large circular screen. The film's rendition of the title song would later be used in Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln.
Bates originally wrote the words as a poem, "Pikes Peak", first published in the Fourth of July edition of the church periodical The Congregationalist in 1895. At that time, the poem was titled "America" for publication.
Ward had originally written the music, "Materna", for the hymn "O Mother dear, Jerusalem" in 1882, though it was not first published until 1892. Ward's music combined with the Bates poem was first published in 1910 and titled America the Beautiful.
The song is one of the most popular of the many American patriotic songs.
History
In 1893, at the age of 33, Bates, an English professor at Wellesley College, had taken a train trip to Colorado Springs, Colorado, to teach a short summer school session at Colorado College. Several of the sights on her trip inspired her, and they found their way into her poem, including the World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago, the "White City" with its promise of the future contained within its alabaster buildings; the wheat fields of America's heartland Kansas, through which her train was riding on July 16; and the majestic view of the Great Plains from high atop Zebulon's Pikes Peak.
America the Beautiful is a 2007 American documentary film directed by Darryl Roberts about self-image in the United States. The film had a limited release on August 1, 2008.

Circle Vision Theater Disneyland full lobby music (1984-1997)
This is the full lobby music for Circle Vision at Disneyland from 1984-1997. This was used for the last 13 years of this theaters operation. This attraction lasted in various forms from 1955, when Disneyland first opened, until Sept 1997 when it closed for the disastrous New Tomorrowland of 1998. To be clear, I don't think Circle Vision aged as well as PeopleMover or a modern & updated version of Inner Space or Submarine Voyage, but it was still futuristic in its time and fit the theme of Tomorrowland better than Buzz. This theater was unique because the screens were all around you. The initial Circarama version lasted until Sept 1966. For the first 5 years, it featured a Tour of the West, which was replaced with the first version of America the Beautiful in 1960. In 1967, for the best New...

This is the full lobby music for Circle Vision at Disneyland from 1984-1997. This was used for the last 13 years of this theaters operation.

To be clear, I don't think Circle Vision aged as well as PeopleMover or a modern & updated version of Inner Space or Submarine Voyage, but it was still futuristic in its time and fit the theme of Tomorrowland better than Buzz. This theater was unique because the screens were all around you. The initial Circarama version lasted until Sept 1966. For the first 5 years, it featured a Tour of the West, which was replaced with the first version of America the Beautiful in 1960. In 1967, for the best New Tomorrowland, the theater became Circle Vision 360, with the nine screen format used for the next 30 years. In 1967-75 it showed an updated version of America the Beautiful, which was updated again in 1975 & played until 1984. The lobby then featured mid century modern state flags & Bell System Exhibits. Outside was the beautiful tile mosaic by Mary Blair. In 1984 it became World Premiere Circle Vision when PSA became sponsor, and the lobby was remodeled again & began playing this music. From 1984-1996 American Journeys and Wonders of China were played at different times of the day. In 1989-1996, Delta was the last sponsor of this attraction, and the lobby was remodeled again for this, which are the screenshots in this video (1995). Images of the 1984-89 lobby are hard to come by. In 1996, America the Beautiful returned for a limited time shortly before Circle Vision closed. The lobby was changed again in 1996-97 with modern state flags. The Mary Blair mosaic lasted until October or November 1997 when it was unceremoniously covered up with plywood so they could put up a MUCH less impressive billboard in place of the former tile mosaic. Initially it did feature a tribute to past Tomorrowland attractions, but in 2005 when Buzz opened it became a somewhat generic cartoony space billboard, still there today. I desperately wish they would bring back the Mary Blair mosaics on both sides in a much needed New Tomorrowland. I hope you enjoy this rare area music!
