Big Band Boogie
What’s this program about?
Unless you’ve mastered time travel, it’s pretty hard nowadays 
to hear these big-band classics played as they were – back when Tommy Dorsey was swinging with the tune “Well, Git It.” But when top-notch players of the Dallas Wind Symphony take on these tunes, they’ve got the chops to swing to the max. Add in a few poodle skirts and spontaneous dancing in the aisles, and the stage is set for a terrific evening.
So what’s on this program?
As you might expect, traditional treasures by Glenn Miller, Tommy Dorsey, Bennie Goodman, Duke Ellington, Artie Shaw, and . . . Sergei Prokofiev?
