Sing and Swing
Dancing and swinging to the music of Big Band Orchestras was known as "The Swing Era." Big Band music goes back to the 1930's and 40's when 12-25 musicians were led by their own Bandleader and Arranger. Each band reflected the personality of its Leader with his own style. Bandleaders, such as Glenn Miller, Benny Goodman, Artie Shaw, and Duke Ellington, led some of the most popular Big Bands.
