The Bebop Bounty Big Band is made up entirely of professional world-class musicians.
Performers include full-time members of Walt Disney World’s flagship ensemble - the Main
Street Philharmonic, current and past members of the world famous Glenn Miller Orchestra, and
members from the Jazz Orchestra at Dr Phillips Center. Each musician was hand-selected by

of the Bebop Bounty Big Band and its incredible show, Cowboy Bebop LIVE!
