I have a deep respect for the men and women keeping the music of glenn miller and other like him alive, glenn millers music especially has a place in my heart due to the fact that the glenn miller documentary was playing when we received the news that my grandfather had passed away, who I believe was also a large fan of this genre of music, R.I.P. Glenn Miller, you may have died in service of your country under unknown circumstances, but you will never be forgotten
Danny Boy was my Dad's favourite song. He passed away more than 10 years ago. Still miss him. If your parents are still alive, tell them you love them before it's too late😍😍😍
No conocí a Glenn Miller porque cuando nací en 1944, él, lamentablemente ya había fallecido. Pero desde mi infancia y juventud y hasta ahora, es el más preferido de las orquestas de jazz. Después, en los 60’, mi orquesta favorita, en otro estilo más moderno, pero excelente, fue la de Bertín Kaempfert! No me canso nunca de escucharlos. ¡Magníficas orquestas inolvidables!
It doesn't age its timeless and wonderful ! I remember my father being really pissed off over Millers death , telling me a lone German pilot shot down the great band leader over the English channel , decades later i read that a returning bomber ditched its bomb load in the same area as Millers aircraft and a bomb went through the his aircraft , we shall never know what happened only we lost a great man.
The dropped-bomb idea was the best explanation known back in the 1980s. However it had a lot of holes in it, in particular the bombers were over 1 km higher than the typical altitude of a small transport, making identification very difficult. Newer research has shown that Miller's UC-64 was actually much farther south, too far away to have been near the drop zone that afternoon. The investigators were also able to get hold of the UC-64's repair records and the pilot's service history. The plane's fuel system was defective but due to parts shortages it hadn't been properly fixed. On top of that the pilot wasn't trained for bad-weather flying but made the trip anyway. It's quite possibly he was pressured to fly by Lt. Col. Norman Baessell who was a risk-taker and wanted to go to Paris even though he didn't have approval. Baessell invited Miller to come along because he knew Glenn was behind schedule. So take your pick - mechanical failure, a pilot who was out of his depth, or maybe both. 😢😢
Que música tan hermosa Los ritmos y los acordes, bien timbradas las cornetas y las trompetas. Invitan a un baile muy intimo en pareja, bajo el cielo y con mucho sentimiento. Gracias por poner esta música y hacernos sentir bien.
Danny Boy sounds like the most perfect recreation of Miller's original version. Pity that the trombone solo stays muted (Miller took out the mute for the last phrase) and that the leader's intonation is slightly uncertain.
@@jordanbusby6231 You're right, on the recording he does. For my comment I listened to the live recording (Carnegie Hall) where the solo is completely unmuted.
We have never been there. We went to Clarinda two times, but never to Grand Rapids. We are the swedish GMO. (it´s me playing the second trumpet solo...)
Comments like this really bother me because you're commenting on a musician improvising without knowing *anything* about what you're poorly attempting to talk about. Did they play transcriptions of the original improvised solos that were recorded back in (something like) 1940? No, but they DID keep their solos idiomatically correct, which they should deserve a lot of credit for. The problem is non musicians like yourself expect musicians who play these tunes to play the exact same originally recorded solos. Why? You're incapable of hearing anything else? This is one of the best Miller "ghost bands" around in regards to playing the music with correct vibrato's, phrasing and overall feel, not to mention playing solos that still reflect the accuracy of the original recordings. Hopefully in the 4 years that have passed since you made this ridiculous comment, you've learned something.

Thanks very much for this magnificent musical gift......

I danced to that and more in my teens and Glenn Miller was one of the best ever!!!!!!!!
By far the best of the Miller “Ghost Bands”.
The bands of the days gone by were so classy....they were even choreographed when they weren’t performing ....visually perfect....
Had the pleassure of seing this band live in Oslo some years back. Great performance, great music and a great band.
May2020 A very large touch of Sparkle to this Orchestra rhat puts them at the very TOP.Glenn must be looking over his shoulder. T.Heslop. UK.

No he didn't I've listened to that recording it stayed muted

When are you coming back to Grand Rapids,Mn again??????? (soon I hope!!)
We have never been there. We went to Clarinda two times, but never to Grand Rapids. We are the swedish GMO. (it´s me playing the second trumpet solo...)
@@fredrikoscar4741 well done sir!
一昔前のラリーオブライエンさんのダニーボーイのソロも素敵だった。
BRAVI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! omg... BRAVO!!!
It's admissional!!!
Prachtig
Try ECS dance with this music. You will love !
1:09 isn't that finger movement quite pointless for vibrato on a trumpet?
It's very effective. The late Ron Romm used that technique.
Супер
Who is the pilot of ths band cause I saw the Orchestra play last night and it wasnt him
As the info at the top of the post notes, it's the Scandinavian edition of the GMO led by Jan Slottenäs.
Who is the leader of this orchestra?
Jan Slottenas
Jan Slottenas
Harry James
Soy chileno y fanático de Glenn Miller como también de Benny Goodman Linda musica.
CHINGON
Uhullllllll
Tuxedo Junction was great until the two trumpeters started "improvising". I don't know what they were doing.
Some call it jazz.
Neither did they....
Thank you! I just played something. Sorry to disappoint you. I´ll practice.
@@fredrikoscar4741 That might be a good idea.
