Army Air Force Band
: :'Real, live American music'--that's what bandleader Glenn Miller wanted to deliver to the troops fighting World War II. To him, the entertainment factor far outweighed the artistic one. As it turned out, he was able to succeed on both counts, delighting the troops with an Army Air Force Band as dynamic and versatile as any he ever led. Capt.

The settings range from woodwinds and strings for the Desmond Blue album to the subtle ...
