.
Glenn Miller’s great American music lives again in
The Glenn
Miller Tribute.
Famous for
being the leader of the most popular big band during the Big Big Band Era,
Glenn Miller is the music symbol of a generation. Of all of the band
and leaders of that era, the memory of Glenn Miller is the most long-lived
and powerful. In the late 1930’s and 1940’s, he was a “pop
superstar” with literally dozens of hit songs creating a public reception
that was as intense and frenzied as it was later for stars like Frank
Sinatra, Elvis Presley, and the Beatles. Some of those hit
songs which are still popular today include:
“In The Mood”,
“Moonlight Serenade”, “I’ve Got A Gal In Kalamazoo”, “Tuxedo Junction”,
“A String Of Pearls”, and “Chattanooga Choo Choo”, for which Glenn Miller
received the first “gold” record in the recording industry.
.
Enlisting in
the Army Air Corps during WWII, Glenn Miller formed one the greatest military
bands of all times which entertained thousands of soldiers in The United
States, England, and France. Major Glenn Miller paid the ultimate
sacrifice when he was lost over the English Channel in a plane traveling
to France to prepare for performances. His music continues to touch
the hearts of millions of people around the world.
.
.
The Glenn Miller Tribute
features
several shows:
.
"I Sustain The Wings"
A special tribute
to the swing music of World War II featuring a recreation of
Major Glenn
Miller's "Army Air Force Band "
in full Authentic
World War II uniforms.
.
.
.
“Glenn
Miller On the Air"
It’s
the 1940’s again with Glenn Miller and his orchestra on the radio with
the
Chesterfield
Broadcasts.
The show features
those great Miller hit songs and
a special appearance
by the Andrew Sisters.
