About this event
Take a step back into the 1930s and ‘40s with the official Glenn Miller Orchestra UK tour, for the ultimate musical celebration of the legendary big band leader, Glenn Miller.
Following sold-out performances at the likes of the Barbican London, Glasgow Royal Concert Hall, Manchester’s Bridgewater Hall, and Liverpool Philharmonic Hall, the orchestra come to The Apex with a concert tour featuring all Miller’s most popular hits.
From ‘In the Mood’, ‘Moonlight Serenade’ and ‘American Patrol’, through to ‘Little Brown Jug’, ‘Tuxedo Junction’ and ‘Pennsylvania 6-5000’, along with a few surprises along the way!
The UK’s only official Glenn Miller tour features the exact orchestra line-up devised by Glenn and also features the fabulous harmonies of the Moonlight Serenaders vocal group, the sublime voices of the orchestra’s two lead singers, and the orchestra’s own swinging jazz band, The Uptown Hall Gang.
Directed and devised by veteran band leader and conductor, Ray McVay, and with a mix of impeccable musicianship, infectious energy, and authentic vintage style, the Glenn Miller Orchestra are an experience not to be missed and remains the ultimate way to hear Miller’s timeless music.
Starts: 3pm
Tickets: £31
