Serenade in Blue by Tim Shorten

My dad was a fan of the big bands – Duke Ellington; Count Basie, Ella et al – and my mum loved Nat King Cole and the post-war musicals, so I guess that what we now call ‘The Great American Songbook’ was hardwired in my psyche more or less from the start. Now, as I work in my studio for long periods, increasingly I find myself listening to the music my parents loved. The title Serenade in Blue is taken from a big-band standard, originally recorded by Glenn Miller and subsequently by many of the big names of jazz.
