Miller, Glenn (1904-1944), was a popular American dance band leader, arranger, and trombonist. Miller's band featured a distinctive sound that he developed by blending a clarinet with four saxophones. The band played smoothly danceable ballads and crisply driving swing numbers. Miller achieved his greatest popularity from 1939 to 1942. During this time he recorded many hits, including "Moonlight Serenade," the band's theme song; "Little Brown Jug"; "In the Mood"; "Tuxedo Junction"; "Pennsylvania 6-5000"; "Chattanooga Choo Choo"; "A String of Pearls"; and "(I've Got a Gal in) Kalamazoo."
