    Cypress Creek FACE presents The Glenn Miller Orchestra.  8 p.m., Saturday, March 6, 2010. 

    The Glenn Miller Orchestra was originally formed in 1937 by Glenn Miller. The new band became very popular and recorded a number of chart successes. Among these were the ever-popular Moonlight Serenade, In the Mood, Tuxedo Junction, Chattanooga Choo Choo and I’ve Got a Gal in Kalamazoo.

    After the disappearance of Miller in 1944, the band was reconstituted under the direction of Tex Beneke, its lead tenor saxophonist, singer and one of Miller’s longtime close friends. After a hiatus, the Glenn Miller Orchestra resumed recording and performing under various leaders starting in 1956.

    Currently trombonist Larry O’Brien leads the band.
