WDW's Future World Brass-Fanfare For The Common Man

The Future World Brass was a high energy brass and percussion ensemble that performed at EPCOT from 1982-1992. The group played arrangements by it's own members and featured a lengthy list of very talented musicians over the years. The following video showcases the group in it's final version. My name is Don Sanderson. I played percussion in the group from 1988-1992. Dave Westerskov, the group's leader is the MC introducing the tunes. Enjoy this classic Disney group.

never new this piece could be played like this.. It is amazing. I am playing this this weekend with a brass choir, but it sounds nothing like this. I am envious.

Wow...the trumpets are really locked in tune....great, guys!

@Silverbugle2005 -- I am fairly certain FutureCorps came after Future World Brass. You are correct, though, that FutureCorps was the superior performing group.

Sorry, I hate to rip ... but that really was not as entertaining as Future Corps... I don't know what "Imaginier" thought that making the group more 'street' would apealing... Where are the cool drill and the marching percussion!? Trying to sound more like a stage band just doesn't cut it... Bring back Future Corps!!! Now!!

I have really enjoyed this performance. Very Original! I'm sure you can play the originale version very well also!! Fantastic!

I liked it but I had to stop listening. This peice was created or intended to be played like that. If you ever decide to play it right them let me know.

Sounded good though

THanks!!!!

Fantastic....I must have played that piece a 100 times on my trombone throughout the years but that is the best arrangement of it I have heard recently!
