THE (NEW) GLENN MILLER ORCHESTRA & THE MOONLIGHT SERENADERS: Home for the Holidays

THE (NEW) GLENN MILLER ORCHESTRA: Home for the Holidays
Nos USA existe uma coisa invejável: a preservação das suas instituições musicais. Diferentemente do Brasil - onde não se preserva nada - o falecimento de um lider não enseja o fim da instituição. A "Glenn Miller Orchestra" e os "Four Freshmen", para citar apenas dois exemplos, são geridas por fundações e - em tese, vão durar para sempre...

THE (NEW) GLENN MILLER ORCHESTRA
The World Famous, Glenn Miller Orchestra, is the most popular and sought after big band in the world today for both concert and swing dance engagements.  With its unique jazz sound, the Glenn Miller Orchestra is considered to be one of the greatest bands of all time.  The present Glenn Miller Orchestra was formed in 1956 and has been touring consistently since, playing an average of 300 live dates a year all around the world.  Trombonist Larry O'Brien is the orchestra's present musical director.

MINHA OPINIÃO
Pra encerrar nossas postagens de Natal, nada melhor que a eterna orquestra de Glenn Miller, em sua versão atual, com os vocais dos "Moonlight Serenaders". Esta postagem foi mais um presente de Natal do nosso querido amigo Jean Yves Cordier, a.k.a JEAN TROMBONE.

(*)Valeu, mais uma vez, Monsieur Trombone: "have yourself a Merry Christmas"!
