The orchestra?s namesake Glenn Miller was the famed bandleader of the Big Band swing era. Miller formed his orchestra in 1938. Striving to differentiate himself from the other big bands of the day, he developed a unique sound by having clarinet and tenor saxophone play a song?s melodic line in unison while three other saxophones provided backing harmony. He is fondly remembered for his iconic recordings of ?In the Mood,? ?Chattanooga Choo Choo,? ?Moonlight Serenade,? and ?Pennsylvania 6-5000,? and as well as many other well-known standards.

Miller traveled extensively during World War II to entertain the troops, providing relief and moral support to millions of soldiers. He was declared missing in action in 1944 when his plane disappeared over the English Channel in bad weather.

The World Famous Glenn Miller Orchestra was established by the Miller estate to honor and promote his legacy. The orchestra has toured consistently, performing an average of 300 shows a year throughout the world.
