Ralph Marterie and Sy Zentner

On the show today I am presenting two exceptional bands from the 1950's and 60's. I have some of these recordings and I have to say they are really good. We will be learning about Ralph Marterie and Sy Zentner and if you have never heard of them you are in for a treat. The first half features Ralph's band and he plays most of the trumpet solos and then in the second half we'll feature the big band of Sy Zentner. I don't have a puzzler this week so get ready to listen to some exciting music from two big bands from the 1950's. Remember, if you are practicing social isolation, what better way to pass the time than listening to this week's episode of Big Band Bash.

Om Podcasten

Big Band Bash is a show presenting the music, musicians, and era of the great Big Bands. Each show highlights a different aspect of the big bands, whether it be a show about a certain band or bandleader or a subject of the big bands anywhere from the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s. I hope to get your feet tapping with this great music.
