Continuity mistake: When Mickey Mouse is preparing to start the concert, you can see that he has a music book on the stand in front of him. When the band start playing in the next shot, the book has disappeared, and in the shot after that, it is back again.
The Band Concert (1935)
Ending / spoiler
As the band plays on and on inside the tornado, Mickey pauses the music and begins to reverse the direction of the tornado. All the band members begin to land upon the branches of a massive tree except for one, an unfortunate Peter Pig who begins to lose his clothing one layer at a time to one individual tree branch at a time until he lands in a barrel completely naked. After Mickey finally lands and conducts the final half of the William Tell Overture showing every member of the band in and around the tree, there standing and applauding the band is Donald Duck, who pulls out one last flute only to have the band throw their instruments at him and the cartoon ends.
