The Los Alamos Big Band has more than 300 charts in its catalog. Many you would recognize the melody if not the title. Most come from the golden era of the 40s and 50s when swing bands like Glenn Miller, Benny Goodman, Count Basie, and Tommy Dorsey were the popular music that everyone listened and danced to. Big Bands have survived and their music has adapted to include versions of rock and roll, opera, Broadway, symphony, movie, and pop tunes.
