This program pays tribute to never‐forgotten artists of the golden era at the highest level. With 'Best of Swing,' the Swing Dance Orchestra presents the hits of the great orchestras of the 1930s and early 40s in original arrangements such as Glenn Miller's 'Chattanooga Choo Choo,' Cab Calloway's 'Minnie The Moocher,' Count Basie's 'Sent For You,' Artie Shaw's 'Begin The Beguine' or Benny Goodman's 'Sing Sing Sing.'
