The Magic Behind "Reflection" from Disney's Mulan: Song Background
Composed by the renowned Matthew Wilder with lyrics by David Zippel, "Reflection" serves as the emotional core of Disney's 1998 animated classic, "Mulan." Voiced by Lea Salonga, the song captures Mulan's internal struggle as she grapples with societal expectations and her own identity.
Directed by Tony Bancroft and Barry Cook, the film is an adaptation of the Chinese legend of Hua Mulan. Significantly, "Reflection" is featured during a moment of introspection, setting the stage for Mulan's courageous decision to take her father's place in the army.
Additionally, the song has received widespread acclaim for its lyrical depth and emotional resonance, becoming an anthem for self-discovery and empowerment.
The Bedtime Fairies' Take on "Reflection" from Disney's Mulan
Firstly, we chose "Reflection" for its poignant message about self-discovery and the courage to be oneself. Just like our other lullabies, we've adjusted the tempo to create a tranquil atmosphere, ideal for bedtime.
Consistency is crucial for us. Hence, we've maintained the piano tuning at 528Hz, known as 'The Miracle Tone.' This tuning is a constant in our series, selected based on scientific evidence of its calming effects. As a result, our rendition offers a soothing backdrop that honors the song's original spirit.
In summary, our version transcends being just a lullaby; it's a meticulously crafted musical experience designed to foster relaxation and well-being.

Nature Sounds in “Reflection” From Disney’s Mulan
To further enrich the auditory experience, we've incorporated our unique nature sounds. These aren't just any sounds; they are carefully selected and recorded from various coastal regions, adding an extra layer of authenticity.
Moreover, the inclusion of these sounds is not merely aesthetic; it's a scientifically-backed choice. Research indicates that nature sounds, particularly water, have a calming effect. Therefore, they serve a dual purpose: enhancing the song's thematic richness and contributing to a restful sleep environment.
Lastly, for those intrigued by the science behind our choices, you can learn more about the nature sounds we use in our music and what current research is saying about their effects.
