Mulan (1998) only has musical numbers for the first half, until the characters find the destroyed village. From there on songs were avoided because the tone was meant to be darker.
Another fun fact: Shan Yu was the only person not to think less of Mulan for being a woman. As soon as he knew she was the soldier who caused the avalanche, he wanted revenge. No gasps or disbelief that a woman did it.

And the last song is concluded with the most jarring tonal shift in any Disney movie
