The Glenn Miller Orchestra

"RAY'S IN THE MOOD" as the world's GREATEST Big Band transports you back to the heady days and music of the 1940s - with the fabulous harmonies of the Moonlight Serenaders and the sublime vocals of Catherine Sykes and Mark Porter. Also joining us, with the sounds of the Andrews Sisters, are the Polka Dot Dolls.

This year marks the 75th anniversary of Glenn Miller's arrival in UK with his Army Air Force band to support the troops in the Allied Invasion of Northwest Europe. He arrived in July 1944 and played around 80 concerts and broadcasts before his disappearance on a flight to Paris six months later.

The legacy he left was his amazing swing music.

We've already played the 75th anniversary of the Dambusters last year.

Featuring: – In the Mood, Moonlight Serenade, American Patrol, Little Brown Jug, Tuxedo Junction and the song that became pop history's first gold disc, Chattanooga Choo Choo!

Audiences of all ages will be thrilled by the sound of this amazing Big Band.

Time: 3:30 pm - 5:00 pm.
