Benny Goodman's 1938 Carnegie Hall Concert
Pete Long's All-Star Goodmen Orchestra with Joan Viskant
If you love big bands this show is a must for you. The repertoire is as refreshing today as it was in 1938, and Pete Long and the All-Star Goodmen Orchestra bring it alive with their outstanding musicianship. In keeping with the original concert Pete uses Benny Goodman’s favoured clarinet reeds and drummer Richard Pite plays an exact replica of Gene Krupa’s kit using Gene’s actual cymbals and brushes. The entire repertoire from the 1938 concert is featured, including Don’t Be That Way, Sing Sing Sing, I Got Rhythm, If Dreams Come True and Springtime in the Rockies.
