SOUNDS OF GLENN MILLER – THE NICK ROSS
ORCHESTRA
70TH Anniversary of the Battle of Britain
With a full line-up of saxophones, trumpets, trombones,
a rhythm section and top singers, The Nick Ross
Orchestra will faithfully recreate the wonderful
1940s sound of such Big Bands as those led by Glenn Miller,
Count Basie, Harry James and Tommy Dorsey. Through such
numbers as Moonlight Serenade, In the Mood, A String
of Pearls, Begin the Beguine and A Nightingale
Sang in Berkeley Square memories of London in the
Blitz will be brought flooding back to life. The music
will span the emotions of those difficult times: comradeship,
doubt, fear, loss and, most significantly, the hope in
love. There have been times in history when composers
and musicians seemed to be born to the occasion - none
more so than the inimitable Glenn Miller who not only
felt instinctively for the mood of the time but almost
single-handed created the spirit with which the public
faced it.
