The third performance in the series will be Juke Box Saturday Night on Friday, December 3, according to Visit Hot Springs Marketing Director Bill Solleder.
“We’ll have the dance floor set up for each of the shows,” Solleder said, “and we encourage everyone to get up and dance to the sounds of these legendary orchestras.”
The Glenn Miller Orchestra consists of the music director, five saxophone players, four trumpeters, four trombonists, piano, bass and drums. There are two vocalists. Performances include the legendary Glenn Miller hits, including “Moonlight Serenade,” “Sunrise Serenade,” “St. Louis Blues March,” “A String of Pearls,” “Elmer’s Tune,” “In the Mood” and dozens of others.
Jukebox Saturday Night is a musical revue of the great big bands from the 1930s, ‘40s and ‘50s. The performances celebrate America’s Swing Era with various styles of music including swing, ballads, cha-chas, waltzes and tangos.
