In big band history, the Tommy Dorsey
Orchestrais recognized as one of the best all-around dance
bands. They could swing with the best of them, and no other band could touch
Tommy’s when it came to ballads. Tommy Dorsey, the “sentimental gentleman of
swing,” was a master of creating warm, sentimental, and always musical moods.
The Tommy Dorsey Orchestra, now led by Buddy Morrow, is traveling
throughout the country playing “for the kids” (of all ages). A family style
luncheon is included. Rest stops will be made both en route to Jim Thorpe
and on the return trip home.
