To kick off #JazzAppreciationMonth we’re taking a look at the musicians in LeRoy Neiman’s “The Big Band.” Bandleader and trombonist Glenn Miller recorded the song “In the Mood” in 1939. As he gained more and more popularity, he left the commercial side of music and took his big band to play for U.S. military members overseas during World War II. In 1944, he boarded a plane to travel from England to France and was never seen again. #AmericanHistory #EntertainmentHistory #MusicHistory #JazzAppreciationMonth #GlennMiller #SmithsonianMusic Support of jazz programming at the museum is made possible by the LeRoy Neiman Foundation; The Argus Fund; the Ella Fitzgerald Charitable Foundation, founding donor of the Jazz Appreciation Month endowment; David C. Frederick and Sophia Lynn; Goldman Sachs; and the John Hammond Performance Series Endowment Fund. The painting Big Band was donated to the Museum by the LeRoy Neiman Foundation.」4月4日 2時16分
