These three men were known for creating a lot of the music still heard today at the parks! 

B. Baker - Buddy Baker, along with Xavier Atencio, wrote the music for the Haunted Mansion, "Grim Grinning Ghosts"

G. Bruns - Along with music often heard around the parks, George Bruns composed the music for the Pirates of the Caribbean!  Yo-ho!  

B. Jackman - Bob Jackman composed a lot of music for Disney's Music Department.  He wrote the music for different television westerns and serials.  

And, as a music major, I love this window!

  5. Thank you so much for posting this. Bob Jackman was my grandfather!! I just recently discovered that his name (along with his lifelong friends Buddy and George) was on a window in WDW. I have so many amazing memories of composers and animators being at their fabulous parties. He also was the voice of Goofy for a lot of cartoons in the 50s. My family and I can't wait to make the trip from California to go check it out for ourselves. Thanks again for the photo!! :) :) :)
