Music reviews of Big Band Music of the War Years (Coll) (Tin)

Music Review: A collection of some of the greatest Big Band tunes
Rating: 5 Stars

This three CD set includes 36 of the best known pieces of big band music from the second World War, and provides a terrific overview of the sound of that era. If you love the strong rhythms and bold brass sounds of this genre, you can't go wrong with this collection. The box set also includes a short booklet describing the history of big band music and explaining how a big band is organized, which provides some useful insights into the music. This is the music that entertained the troops during the war and maintained morale on the home front, and is exciting, warm and nostalgic. These recordings by the BBC Big Band Orchestra are crystal clear, which might be the only flaw in the set...you almost expect to hear the scratchy noise of a phonograph record or the crackle of an AM radio broadcast.
