Marking the 70th Anniversary of the Outbreak of the Second World War

Through such numbers as "Moonlight Serenade", "In The Mood", "Little Brown Jug", "Begin the Beguine" and "Blue Moon", memories of London in the Blitz will no doubt be brought flooding back to life. The music will span almost all the emotions of those difficult times: comradeship, doubt, fear, loss and, most significantly, the hope in love. There have been times in history when composers and musicians seemed to be born to the occasion - none more so than the inimitable Glenn Miller who not only felt instinctively for the mood of the time but almost single-handed created the spirit with which the public faced it.
