Still jamming this in 2024. I will never forget seeing these guys live on a band trip to Disney. We were all in awe back then as I still am today over 20 years later. I'll never forget these guys.
Dear Disney: Please bring these guys back. I know Mark Zauss still plays with a group in the Magic Kingdom, but I'm sure that DCI is still breaming with young talent waiting to get a chance like this.
There is a very small sub-sect of the human race that will understand with the necessary technicality how incredibly impossible this song is to play and how absolutely perfectly these guys were nailing it - with surgical precision - while marching. This theme is notorious for being a difficult piece, especially amongst musicians, and these 13-14 guys pulled it off whilst producing sounds just as powerful as a full marching band. This is just absolutely incredible. The fact that people are just walking by while this is happening absolutely mystifies me.
I know right? I'd be following them around the whole day. Screw rides and whatever else Disney has to offer. This is world-class music being made right in front of you.
The 90s was an incredible time for performance art. We went out to Orlando, FL for the DCI Finals and caught The Future corp a few times. Returning back to SoCal. We got to see Tom Float and two others in the Trash can trio…
Neat thing is people keep finding this and enjoying an appreciating it - 5 years after it was posted and 23 years after it was performed. Today's "drum corps" doesn't give me goose bumps like this.
That is so awesome- arrangement, chord structure, runs, execution, tone quality, etc. I need to put this video on a loop and just eat, sleep, and listen to it.
This is INSANE!!!! Awesome. I think if there were some more tag words in here like disney disneyland epcott magic kingdom disney world etc... a LOT more views would be on here.
Not sure exactly when it was, but based on videos posted, somewhere around 1997. Never cared for the rolling racks. Didn't matter if it was the 5 bass or the 6 bass configuration, they just didn't project as well.
Sad that the modern Disney main band is trying to copy this. I don't think Walt envisioned a mini drumcorps show for the main Disney band. Supposed to be 1890's "town band" for them. That said, they really should bring back Future Corps.

Amazing TALENT!!! Plus crazy choreography! The amount of HOURS needed to perform at that level is beyond my comprehension!!

The fact that people are just walking by should be a tip off that Future Corps is doing their job incredibly well.

What I wouldn’t give to see these guys come back and play “The Incredibles”.....
Unfrickingbelievable. Forget rides. I'd follow these guys around all day.
Love this.
When I want to get myself in a good mood...I throw this on.
Great stuff.
It's OK to have fun.

Bill Kardos I couldn't agree more!
Modern Drum Corps have definitely defined a lot of really great moments.
Oh! My! Gosh! That was jaw dropping!
all though I do appreciate the marching band Disney has now, id luv it even more if future corps came back. such a heavy sound! me luvsssssssss!!!!!
That is so awesome- arrangement, chord structure, runs, execution, tone quality, etc. I need to put this video on a loop and just eat, sleep, and listen to it.
I'd like to hear a studio recording of this!
This remains my ringtone! :)
WOW!!! I've always wanted to hear a corps do that well! Now do Jonny Quest!
that is very difficult, impressive, magnificent coreography. good show. great band. thanks Disney. it was hard, and thanks for the clip.
This is INSANE!!!! Awesome. I think if there were some more tag words in here like disney disneyland epcott magic kingdom disney world etc... a LOT more views would be on here.
Love that tune!
Absolute fire
"Jane! stop this crazy thing!"
Outstanding!
Holy crap.
Bring Future Corps back to Disney!
Early entrance on that soprano solo, but I enjoyed it both times!
My God man... you're using G+
There is definitively something missing of Epcot without that Horizons building on the Future World West side of the park.
Does anyone else want a transcription of this?
Animals !
The rolling drum kits came later, I guess. Poor guy carrying the triple bass drums, now that was monstrous.

👍👍👍👍👍
Awesome!
Wow!!!
Breezemont is actually right... These are bugles in G.
wow.
Yep.
Look up "evolution of the bugle".
...I just realized that I'm not a real man. Damn, must keep practicing to get my cahones back.
contrabass bugle actually.. calling it a contra could confuse it with the contrabass tuba also more commonly shortened to tuba.
Sorry had to do it. :P
You can, but you would be wrong.
That's not a trumpet, it's a soprano bugle.
