Show Notes

Today's show showcases big bands from the 1930s to the 1950s. They were a defining feature of the music scene at this time, from early jazz, through the swing era and then into the mainstream of popular music. Their musicians were highly talented jazz artists and the singers among the nicest voices around. They often played the work of gifted arrangers, who brought delightful interpretations of the treasury of jazz and popular songs from the pens of the great song writers of the time. Enjoy some wonderful music!
