Not long before Glenn Miller's plane crashed in the English Channel, the popular bandleader had nosed-out Tommy Dorsey as the "Best Sweet Band" in the Downbeat poll. Miller's recordings of In The Mood, Chattanooga Choo Choo, A String of Pearls, Moonlight Serenade and Tuxedo Junction were all major hit records. The Miller Estate formed the present Glenn Miller Orchestra in 1956 which has toured constantly since, playing an average of 300 live dates a year.
The Orpheum Theatre is pleased to conclude the 2010 Red Carpet Series with this iconic big band on Sunday, October 3 at 4 p.m.
Tickets start at $20.
The World Famous Glenn Miller Orchestra is sponsored by OSF Holy Family Medical Center, OSF Home Care Services and OSF St. Mary Medical Center.
